What does Christmas mean to you?

Christmas is a very sacred time of the year. It’s a reminder of the best of Christ and to challenge us all not to serve ourselves, but to serve others.

Christmas means bringing families closer together and showing love toward each other.

To me, Christmas means spending time with my family, laughing and just being in the presence of happiness.

My daughter was born on Christmas, 1988, and what I like about Christmas is to see the children smile, be happy and to put laughter on children’s faces.

It means family. It means God. It means a sharing of the harvest. The start of Kwanzaa and its meaning (in part) is the reflection of what’s transpired throughout the whole year and what changes you can make moving forward.

Christmas to me means fellowship with friends and family, giving back to those who are in need and not always looking to receive something in the end.
