The true meaning of Christmas is love. John 3:16-17 says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." The true meaning of Christmas is the celebration of this incredible act of love.

The real Christmas story is the story of God's becoming a human being in the Person of Jesus Christ. Why did God do such a thing? Because He loves us! Why was Christmas necessary? Because we needed a Savior! Why does God love us so much? Because He is love itself (1 John 4:8). Why do we celebrate Christmas each year? Out of gratitude for what God did for us, we remember His birth by giving each other gifts, worshipping Him, and being especially conscious of the poor and less fortunate.

The true meaning of Christmas is love. God loved His own and provided a way—the only Way—for us to spend eternity with Him. He gave His only Son to take our punishment for our sins. He paid the price in full, and we are free from condemnation when we accept that free gift of love. "But God demonstrated His own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8).

What today we know as the Night of Bruges or Halloween was celebrating they do more than 3000 years for the Celts, a warlike people who was living zones of Ireland, England, Scotland and France. Precisely on October 31, the Celts were celebrating the end of year with the Samhain, a pagan holiday. With the European immigration to the United States, principally that of the catholic Irishes in 1846, came Halloween's tradition to the American continent. When one speaks about Halloween or Day of the Brujas it is thought about disguises, makeup, holiday, sweets and children; but the tradition indicates that his celebration not always was festive and happy, and that the rites that were practised during the night had a character purifier and religiously. Towards the 8th century, the Christian Church turned on November 1 in the All Saints' Day to produce honoring to all the saints who did not have a particular day of celebration. Throughout the years, these festivals combined, and the majority called " All hallowmas " (the mass of all the saints, of the holy persons) in the day of All the Saints. The previous night it was known as " All Hallows Eve " (Eve of the All Saints' Day). With the time, his name turned into Halloween.

Paciencia



Patience is the virtue by which we endure with serene evils and the vicissitudes of life, lest they lose the serenity of the soul abandon assets that have lead us to get larger ones.
The patient person tends to develop a sensitivity that will allow you to identify problems, disappointments, joys, triumphs and failures of everyday life and, through it, face life optimistically, so quiet and always looking for harmony .

You need to be patient with everyone, but first with yourself.

Patience is not passivity before suffering not react or simply hold it: it is strength to accept with serenity the pain and trials that life makes available for continuous internal progress.


Sometimes the rush prevent us from enjoying the present. Enjoy every moment is only possible with a dose of patience, a virtue that can develop and that allow us to live without haste. Patience allows us to see clearly the origin of the problems and how best to solve them.
