İn countries with large populations of Orthodox Christians such as Russia,the Ukraine,Romania celebrate Christmas on 7 January too.

Many homes have Christmas trees and other decorations in the weeks leading to Christmas Day. Festive activities include exchanging presents, singing Christmas songs, going to parties.

It's a special time when children get presents from family, friends and Santa Claus, or Father Christmas. Christmas cards are also given or sent out prior to Christmas Day.

Christmas is the only time of the year when people can listen to their natural impulses and express their true feelings, love, generosity, peace without their egos feeling threatened.

Christmas is the time when we feel tenderness for the past, courage for the present and hope for the future. Christmas is not a time or season of the year, but rather a state of our mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to feel compassion, these are the true Spirit of Christmas.

 

Merry Christmas!
