The Most Wonderful Time of The Year…

The most wonderful time of the year, as been destroyed by the tale of “Santa”. How distracted most kids are from the true meaning of Christmas because of Santa and his gift giving. I always like to see younger kids talk about Jesus being born around Christmas time rather that talking about Christmas. The world Young kids live in today is all in advertisement of “Santa clause”. Which I mean could be a good thing (they will act really nice so the are not on the naughty list. But anyways I  hate to see the true meaning  of Christmas ruined by Santa.

 Santa comes from a long tale ago about a marvelous saint. St Nickolas. He was Such a generous man. He was truly indeed a man from God. St Nick was very generous, has I mentioned, he was so generous he made “gifts” for kids on  any day of the year. And then as centuries went by, the world made it on one day… Christmas Day…. The worst day possible  it ruins the meaning of Christmas. What is the route word it Christmas?

Christ.  So where does gifts come in? I don’t know, I am guessing from the wise men that brought Jesus the gifts of gold incense and myrrh.

 St Nickolas… The greatest, generous, loving, caring you will ever meet.(if you were alive back then) Yes I might be upset about Santa clause, but I love the saint Nickolas. One thing that is for sure about him is that his family was wealthy(like St Francis) but, he didn’t like all this money. He noticed three girls (in separate families) who are poor and going in the wrong direction. So what he did, is on three separate occasions he would stop at there houses and drop off a bag of money. St Nicholas also, was said to have made gifts for young girls and boys, to make them happy. (because their families would have been poor)  for this reason he his often shown with bags * bags of gold*.

Nicholas was a bishop in Myra. This is where he did most of is teaching, but he moved out in the world and became quite popular… 

Their isn’t a lot about St Nicholas that is “For Real” or that is confirmed real…. About this saint, but one thing we do know is by his charity, Santa was created, and love and peace, and charity ,by him sets us an example of how to live our lives.
