Hey all,my cat, oden is what inspired me to write this blog entry tonight. We've had oden for 2 years now and there's never a dull moment when he's around. He has such an interesting personality. I could just sit here for hours on end observing oden. He always finds something to keep us and himself quite entertained. It was not to long ago that my mom and I put up our Christmas tree. As soon as that was done, Oden and his curiosity got the best of him so he came over and investigated the tree,luckily, he didn't knock it over, lol. As we found out, Oden loves the Christmas tree and Christmas time and I honestly don't know why. I love Christmas and now Oden does too. Anyway, tonight he was bored so he decided to go lay under the tree and the lights, so I just figured I'd get a picture of him. He was pretending to be a Christmas present. Christmas time is a time to spend with family and close friends,charity, and lots of giving. You see,Christmas is not about the fancy lights, or the gifts, or anything. It's mostly a time to spend with everybody that you love and hold close to your heart. My favorite parts of Christmas is the dinners and the desserts. I have a major sweet tooth. I love to spend time with my family, my family is so important to me. They mean everything to me as well as close friends and the love of my life. I'd much rather give than receive. I enjoy the looks on everybody's face when they open their Christmas gifts. Christmas is also a time to bond with God and Jesus. Christmas day is the day that Christ was born. I get so aggravated when I see or hear someone say "Xmas" or "Happy Holdiays" because neither of these phrases make any sense to me, I believe that it's pretty pointless to say "Happy Holidays" or "Xmas". Christ is the one who died for us so that all of our sins can be forgiven. God and Jesus want you to make a good, strong relationship with them. They want you to call on them and ask them for help, to cast your worries all on them. They will always provide for you. It may not be answered right away or it may not be the answer you were hoping for. But the truth is, it's just a blessing in disguise although it may not feel like that at the moment, but all in time you will understand why your going through all of this. It will be so worth it in the end believe me. Now to conclude this entry, I'd just like to say that I hope all of you Have a very Merry Christmas now and forever. Thank you.
