SILENT NIGHT


It's the Holy Night, the Silent Night. The Night when Jesus was born, the magic night when the star is shining down on the East. On this night every year I celebrate his birthday, it feels really spiritual and emotional. The night is calm, the sky is clear, the wind is blowing gently. By December the 24th, I'm longing to be up North, Merry Christmas everybody =D.

THIS GIFT


At Christmas Time, giving gifts is one of the things that represents this holiday. This shows how much people care about each other and it is fun to receive gifts too. I like this photo because the red and green colors compliment each other really well, and these are the two symbolic colors of Christmas. Also, this year I have a special gift to give to a special someone... :)

XMAS SPIRIT


The Holly Leaves play an important role in Christmas. It is the symbol of Christ's Thrown. The spines of the leaves became symbolic of “Crown of Thorns”, the red berries representing the drops of blood associated with his suffering. On Christmas people use these leaves as their decorations, thy can hang them, or put them around the candles or sew them into boughs. The tradition began from the Romans who used these Holly leaves to send to their friends on Christmas time.

CANDY CANES


One of the most often seen symbols of Christmas is the candy cane. Not only are candy canes used as a sweet Christmastime treat but they are also used for decoration. The history of them goes back to Europe a long time ago when they first used them as decoration for Christmas Tree. I personally love the any canes because of their fun cane shape and colors, plus they taste pretty sweet.

Snow is soft and pure and pretty. A snowy lake is like a paradise with white snow-covered mountains around and pine trees. Winter is such a sight! I want to live near a snowy lake and I can just sight see the area everyday without getting bored. yet I know it could be super cold because it's windy, but it's still fun to live there (lol).
