A Christmas Story
One day, I went to a monastery with my aged parents and wanted to take a few pictures from this monastery, this was an ancient building; presumably it was over 100 years old that it had its own unique characteristics with its own signature which was written all over it.
This building had several complexes and each building was built in different stage of history, and still the original building remained intact. The original building was apparent to viewers due to outside structure of building which was darker than other newer buildings. As each complex was becoming newer, outside structure was brighter, and it resembled modern architect expertise than compare to the original building.
We decided to walk inside the church which was used by monks and public for over 100 years to worship the Mighty God, and praise Her Holiness Merry and His Holiness Jesus. We wanted to learn about this new world that we are living in, as we made new discovery about our own feelings toward Her Holiness Merry and His Holiness Jesus.
There was a fountain close by the entrance door, and holy water was running constantly. This church had magnificent statues of Her Holiness Merry and His Holiness Jesus on wall, and church window paintings. All of sudden, I noticed my mother was crying for Her Holiness Merry statues on the church wall. I decided to give her privacy, and walked toward my father, and noticed my father was staring at a cross which depicted His Holiness Crucifixion. I informed my father gently that mom was crying at Her Holiness Merry, my father took a few step backward from the cross, and bowed to the cross, and made sure that he would not turn his back to the cross. He proceeded toward his wife, and invited her to look at the cross. When they approached toward the cross, my mothers’ eyes got watery, and no longer could control her emotions; my father asked her what was the reason for her to get emotional? She told him that look what people had done to Him. Indeed, what people have done to Him, it was inhumane and cruel beyond any recognition, there is no slightest doubt that He was a messenger from the Mighty God, and He was a messenger of peace and prosperity for everyone. However, some individuals at that time did not understand His message, and decided to eradicate Him and His message. Did they? Of course not, He was messenger of God; He walked on straight path of life and did not violate Ten Commandments. At end, His enemies failed miserably to accomplish their final objective of eliminating His message of peace and prosperity, and today He is alive and living among us, at every occasion we reach to Him and seek His counsel, as well as, His advice to save us from lies, and destruction. Particularly, people celebrate His date of birth on December 25th, of each year and exchange gifts with one anther, no matter what, He always brings joy and happiness to people’s life. Let’s celebrate this December 25th, 2007 with our family, friends, and do not forget those unfortunate one. because His Holiness never forget them.
Merry Christmas to all, ho, ho, ho Santa is Coming by home for sure, and having eggnog with rum for Santa, ha, ha, ha, obviously this Santa will be charge for drinking and driving, ha, ha, ha…..
Still, I am a Muslim person, and believe in unity among all faith groups, as Koran says that God brought one faith only human divided themselves among other faith, and sects.
