Someone’s birthday
During a relative’s or friend’s birthday, we buy gifts and help him or her celebrate the special day. But on Christmas, we completely forget whose birthday it is and just shower each other with gifts and food. Hypocrites we really are.
Xmas plan
Someone posted this: This Christmas, I want to be holly and jolly, not stressy or depressy.
Deserted post
Motorists watched as police officers monitoring traffic in the Erima area yesterday scurried for shelter during the heavy downpour around noon. They must have forgotten to bring their macs.
Loving dad
A dad treated his eldest son to a eat-all-you-can lunch at a restaurant even though he came 27th in his class this year. Dad knows son is “slow” in class but makes up for it by helping around their home. Precious father-son bond.
Thought for today
Please help someone in need this Christmas. A food basket or a little cash to help someone or a family will go a long way in giving them hope. Leave no Christian behind on this special occasion.
