Tradition of Gift

Gift has become a tradition on Christmas. People enjoy giving gifts to others not because it is tradition but it is the only time in year form all the busy life when they can tell their love ones value and worth they have in the lives of people surrounding them. It has become a part of Christmas that every one give gifts to others. Imagining Christmas without gift is similar to half the joy of that time. It is not a tradition of man but an imitation of three unknown wise people who came from cities which are still mystery to man, with precious things out of pure admiration. They don't have materialistic benefit and political will behind their motive to come. They came with just a pure admiration for the king yet uncrowned but king of kings. Their focus was to show their admiration and love which they presented in the form of gifts. Their gifts were costly yet they were not filled with any boast. They came for a baby in the manger Christ.

Years have past still their act of pure love is not only remembered but practiced also by all the people through out world. They have set an example for coming generations and generations how to share joys, their simple action has made lots and lots of people happier afterwards i.e even two thousand years latter. Giving without expectation was their purpose. This has become motto of Christmas gifts. It is not how much you give and how much big you give? It is about in what spirit you give. Worth of gift is not measured with the cost but with the love which is behind it.

We all forget birthday's important events in the lives of our love ones. This is the time to tell them how much they mean to us. A simple creative gift may become a source of permanent happiness in the life of someone. So at this priceless time when God give his begotten son Jesus Christ to the world let us celebrate it in true spirit by reminding others of our love too. Lessen the burden of your heart. Give and share love. Forget all the impure thoughts against people who have hurt you with a gift tell them that you have forgiven them all.

It is not only a tradition but a willing belief that joys doubled with sharing. Let's share the joys with others. Especially with those who have no one to share, who are alone and with out any mean to enjoy happiness. Extend our hands to those as well who are orphan and old people living in old houses. Little things can be a lot for someone else. So let's join our hand and heart to give and share.
