It’s beginning to look a lot like the Christmas I have always known until last year. This year my Christmas spirit feels I don’t know…all messed up. I was recently asked to write a paragraph for my college that is going to be presented at their Christmas around the World chapel. They asked me to share about my experience in a third world country on Christmas. Weeks before this and until now and probably until the holidays are over I just have a different feeling about Christmas. I just keep thinking about how I celebrated Christmas last year screaming at the top of my lungs at midnight rejoicing about our Savior’s birth, eating chicken that was so tough I couldn’t bite it off (they sure ran those chickens), sharing individual traditions of Christmas with teammates and ending the night with worshiping to the Lord.
I am more then honored to celebrate this Christmas in the states and with my family but how I spent Christmas last year will always have a special place in my heart and hopefully remind me each year how passionate am I living my life.
I got this idea from a squad mate Tangi and wanted to share you a video of how I spent my last year Christmas Holiday! Enjoy!
