Merry Christmas & Happy New Year 2011 - Page 2

Christmas is such a wonderful time, a season to warm our hearts. It reminds us of the goodness in the human spirit that brings to us the warmth all through winter and the months to follow.

Christmas is not just about gifts, cakes, Christmas trees, Christmas carols, Christmas SMS messages, Santa Claus, scraps, new year wishes, Christmas text messages, celebrations, shopping, holidays, greetings and more. It is about the Son of God, his birthday, his sacrifices for humankind, the joys of giving and sharing, and peace on earth.

People have already started wishing their near and dear ones by sending messages from mobile phones and through social networking sites. Where else can you find an equalitarian and cosmopolitan festival like this! On this joyous occasion, give a thought to the glory of this special city of Chennai, where St. Thomas, one of the 12 apostles of Jesus Christ, settled down and preached the Gospel till his end. Imagine how blessed we are to live in Chennai, the city of love and peace, where History and Modernity live side by side!

So let's also enjoy this day of stars, Santas, glittering balls, cakes and candles with fun, joy and peace.
