Season is Thoughts

The most awaited season of the year has finally come. The most joyous month is here at last. At times it really makes me wonder what life would be without December. Something is indeed very special on this season, which brings changes not only in the atmosphere but also in our zest for life and living.

The air begins to get cooler especially in the mornings when the fields and remaining forests are embraced and kiss by the fog, that slowly descends upon the earth.

The first streak of light that pierces the darkness of earth is the sign of life. The stillness of the dawn which has long been awakened by the crowning of the fowls and singing of the birds only add more colour and harmony to the many fabrics of creation, all for the beauty of life and for the joy of mankind. Have you walked around already at 4 or 5 in the morning???

We may not have snow in the Philippines to behold and touch as the music lanes blast to the tune of “White Christmas” like now I grew up in my home country. But out in the grassy fields, as you feel the earth with your feet, the fog and the dew give testimony that the earth is still full of life. Yes, we have all the reasons to love life, also here in the Philippines. It’s really a piety, that many people don’t see the beauty any more. It’s sad that man prefer to destroy rather than to build or to keep everything in good condition. Like the beasts, it seems that man has only learned to fight and kill one and another.

December is Christmas. And still now at the second half of my life December is still my favourite month and the most special season of the year. It’s time for giving and sharing instead of hurting in an egoistic way hiding behind our incredible masks.

December and Christmas should be the song to awaken our sometimes hardened hearts, to touch those people around us, who might have waited a long time for such a move.

It’s also the time to thank Bob and Feyma Martin for a wonderful and unique friendship. Thank you Bob, that you make it possible for me to join “Live in the Philippines”.

I also like to thank all my friends, who supported me in my work, especially internet business, just to mentioned Ted Padova and John Grant. Thanks to all the others, whom I can’t mention here.

And last but not least I like to thank all readers dropping by my blog and “Live in the Philippines”. Merry Christmas to all of you and a Happy New Year 2008. God bless us all.

  9. Hello Klaus,

    Merry Christmas to you and yours. Enjoyed your topics this year…not sure if I will ever appreciate being waken by the “crowing of the fowl”! I have only expierenced this in the Phils. My wife misses those early wake-up calls…oh well, we are not allowed to keep animals in our subdivision…so, alarm clocks will have to suffice.

    Regards and my wish to you for a happy New Years

  10. Hi Harvey, also for you and your wife and all your loved ones a Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year. Thanks for always stopping by and hopefully enjoy reading LiP also next year. - Yup, we are very blessed, we don’t need alarm clocks :wink: . We enjoyed different birds, we have dogs and even a little fish farm. That’s WHAT I MISSED before living 25 years in Berlin.

    Best wishes KLAUS
