A SPECIAL GIFT ON CHRISTMAS DAY
by Rhea Joy Bachar
Grade X-Rizal

           Every year, we celebrate Christmas. It is a very important event in our life. Also it is the time that our Savior Jesus Christ was born. People have their own preparations. When we celebrate this special occasion we   remember the happiness in our heart that God gave to us. All of us go to church and give gratitude to Him for the blessings that He gave.

          Every Christmas, when I was young I left my socks in front of our door and hang it or sometimes I left my written wish lists in our Christmas tree that is near  our window and wait until 12 midnight. The generation change, time change, ate attitude can change also the taste in something. We can wish such thing that makes us happy. And now that I'm a teenager, I wish for many gifts. However, there is one that I truly wish, that is the returning of my mother. We do not  always  wish for  material things  but we actually wish for the person the we dream to be with  and for persons special to us. I  really  miss my mother so much.I am lucky because there are people who catch me when I fall  and who give love and protection but the love of a mother is totally  different. When I was young I see her work hard. She's a  very supportive  mother. I want to experience and feel again her love and care especially this Christmas. I long for the times when she buys me clothes that fit me. Lastly I want to feel again the happiness of just being with her.

    Christmas time is about sharing and giving, but for me its all about having fun. We like to stay with our family because family comes first. Christmas is the time to have fun and enjoy the company of our family. The time we share with our family is the time we talk about old stories that has happen to our lives throughout the year.

The Fire of Friendship

Image
Paulo Coelho A man called Ali is in need of money and asks his boss to help him out. His boss sets him a challenge: if he can spend all night on the top of a mountain, he will receive a great reward; if he fails, he will have to work for free. When he left the shop, Ali noticed that an icy wind was blowing. He felt afraid and decided to ask his best friend, Aydi, if he thought he was mad to accept the wager. After considering the matter for a moment, Aydi answered: ‘Don’t worry, I’ll help you. Tomorrow night, when you’re sitting on top of the mountain, look straight ahead. ‘I’ll be on the top of the mountain opposite, where I’ll keep a fire burning all night for you. ‘Look at the fire and think of our friendship; and that will keep you warm. ‘You’ll make it through the night, and afterwards, I’ll ask you for something in return.’ Ali won the wager, got the money, and went to his friend’s house. ‘You said you wanted some sort of payment in return.’ Aydi said, ‘Yes, but it isn’...

I am a Paper Plane

   I Am A Paper Plane    by Jerahmeel N. Tayag Jr.            Do you remember playing with a paper plane when you were young?   Soaring high,   soaring low then slowly falling down,   landing gently or roughly on the ground.   The fall depends on the strength of wind and the pull of gravity.   Never have I imagined that I would be like a paper plane.        Growing up,my arms are torn,   I can’t do the things I dearly want to do;   my legs are crippled,   I can’t go places where the brave dare to go,   where I want to actually be in;   my tongue is knotted,   my wind could not speak for me,   not even allowed to utter a word.   I am in a poor,   very poor situation as nerves of my heart are crushed.   I am vowed to follow strictly against my will, against my power.   I felt dumb and numb.   I must fly,   I have ...

Past is History, the Future is a Mystery and every Moment a Gift

a reflection by  Sophia May Moscare                                Grade X- Earth              Everything we do creates memories. It just depends upon us to keep it or not. And from our past experiences, we tend to learn and try not to do it again. What we have gone through made us stronger and taught us to become a better version of ourselves. Our past might be hard to forget, but it would always be our choice to live in it or to just go and move on with life. 'Cause life is full of surprises and enjoying it is the best thing to do. Let us not let anyone rob us our own happiness, not even ourselves. Just think of today and choose a life that's worth it. Worry not much about the future, instead enjoy what you have right now, create memories with the people you love, because life is so unpredictable. The future you are thinking about will soon be your present and w...
