Hope you have had a nice Christmas Eve.

Since I was a little child that I see Christmas as if it was a magical day; almost as if all dreams could become real! Obviously nothing ever changes and today, more than ever, I know that clearly.

This year I didn’t make the Christmas tree; am not in a mood of Christmas, I suppose. This last year was to forget; I wish I would have never met some people. Christmas without hope is like a garden without flowers, like poetry written in a prose way... just one more common day, isn’t it?

Today will share here two more stories of which one is a short fable. I don’t know about you, but I like to speak through them: it’s a very funny way of making people think, meditate and reflect. Stories with moral always stay in our minds, isn’t that right? Plus, they always have a moral that show us the right behaviour and the real meaning of life. That’s the purpose of this blog too. I want to show you that life is so much more than what people think it is and if my words can encourage you somehow, if they can give you hope to continue, I would be very happy to be helping you (because you are also helping me).

Though, before I share with you the stories, let me approach one subject that everybody speaks on 25th December: GIFTS! I can be wrong by saying this, but to 99% of people Christmas means presents. So imagine this... You need (or want) a new car; I buy you that car and send it to you. When you receive it, will it have any meaning? At first sight and without thinking, you may answer yes, it will have; but after reflecting a little you will get to the conclusion it won’t. If you don’t know me, how could my gift mean anything?

Gifts aren’t important, people are. Have you ever heard that it’s all about people’s intentions and not about how much the gifts cost?

Without the ones you love, you are nothing, you have zero. This might sound aggressive, but it’s the pure truth. I don’t want to see you content; I want to see you happy, complete, fulfilled and rich. Emotionally rich! Don’t waste the “diamonds” because of vulgar stones. These last ones you can find everywhere, just around the corner there are dozens, hundreds of them.  The diamonds are priceless, you can’t buy them...LOVE, FRIENDSHIP, FAMILY... The rocks can be bought; sometimes you can get them for free, but never forget this: you shall work to live and not live to work. Life is much more than money, cars, houses...What’s the point of having all this if you do not have love? Without anyone to share your life, your dreams, your all being?

You shall live to love and love to live. Love shall be your main goal! The best gift you can ever have is love and the best gift you can give to anyone is your love. So, a beautiful and simple box with your heart inside of it is a complete gift, because it contains your love, friendship, care, attention, time and all your life. If it is to offer rocks, stay quiet, don't even make a movement. Do not offer anything if it is not to offer the best of you. Only then you can receive the best of others, isn’t it dear reader? Estimate people, they are all you have. Only them are able to give you the best present: LOVE! And Love will give you the rest you need...
