A few years back parang feel na feel ko pag malapit na ang pasko. Nanjan ung excited kang mamili for your family and friends. You smile at the thought of al those Christmans parties u are invited to. You hear christmas carollers as early as October or November. Ang saya diba?
Pero ngayon ganun parin ba? In our village I havent heard even one christmas carol on the streets. I havent even gone shopping even if my siblings have slowly placed gifts under our tree already. I guess Im just not in a jolly mood.
Right now, christmas for me is such a sell-out. Sobrang commercialized that on TV ang daming pilit na shows to have a xmas special or trailers of tv shows or movies na pinipilit idugtong ang pasko. I myself am guilty for producing such nauseating plugs. But hey, its not like I want to do it. Its just that I HAVE to do it.
Pero putting that thought aside, di ko na nafi-feel ang pasko unlike before. Maybe its just me, but maybe its the world din. Its this place we live in that makes christmas a not so exciting holiday. Maybe its economics? maybe its the government? maybe its just personal issues? No matter what the reason is Christmas isnt as fun as before.
Pero I know its not too late to turn this feeling around. Hey, there are still a couple of weeks before xmas. Maybe by that time magiging angat na talaga ang ligaya ng pasko and it wont just be and over-sensationalized, too commercilized, materialistic Christmas.. Sna db?! :)
