Christmas
This was sent to me by a close friend and I wanted to share it with all of you.
Love,
Melissa
As you well know, we are getting closer to my
birthday. Every year there is a celebration in my
honor and I think that this year the celebration
will
be repeated.
> During this time there are many people shopping for
> gifts, there are many radio announcements, TV
> commercials, and in every part of the world everyone
> is talking that my birthday is getting closer and
> closer.
>
> It is really very nice to know, that at least once a
> year, some people think of me.
>
> As you know, the celebration of my birthday began
> many
> years ago.
>
> At first people seemed to understand and be thankful
> of all that I did for them, but in these times, no
> one
> seems to know the reason for the celebration.
>
> Family and friends get together and have a lot of
> fun,
> but they don't know the meaning of the
> celebration.
> I
> remember that last year there was a great feast in
> my
> honor. The dinner table was full of delicious foods,
> pastries, fruits, assorted nuts and chocolates. The
> decorations were exquisite and there were many,
> many
> beautifully
> wrapped gifts.
>
> But, do you want to know something? I wasn't

>
> I was the guest of honor and they didn't remember to
> send me an invitation.

> The party was for me, but when that great day came,
> I
> was left outside, they closed the door in my face ..
> and I wanted to be with them and share their table.
>
> In truth, that didn't surprise me because in the

> wasn't
> invited, I decided to enter the party without
> making
> any noise. I went in and stood in a corner.

> They were all drinking; there were some who were
> drunk
> and telling jokes and laughing at everything. They
> were having a grand time.
>
> To top it all, this big fat man all dressed in red
> wearing a long white beard entered the room yelling
> Ho-Ho-Ho! He seemed drunk. He sat on the sofa and
> all
> the children ran to him, saying: "Santa Claus, Santa
> Claus" as if the party were in his honor!
>
> At midnight all the people began to hug each other;
> I
> extended my arms waiting for someone to hug me and
> do
> you know no-one hugged me.
>
> Suddenly they all began to share gifts. They opened

> one
> for me. What would you feel if on your birthday
> everybody shared gifts and you did not get one?
>
> I then understood that I was unwanted at that party
> and quietly left.
>
> Every year it gets worse. People only remember the
> gifts, the parties, to eat and drink, and nobody
> remembers me.

> Today, I only want that you believe this with all

> I want to share something with you. As many didn't

> See you soon. I Love you! Jesus
