What Christmas Is NOT About

Every year, when Christmas is approaching, many of us start stressing and worrying about things that don’t even define the true meaning of Christmas. So today, let’s talk about what Christmas is NOT about👇👇

❌ 1. Christmas is NOT a competition
Christmas is not the Olympics of “who decorated their house better” or “who bought the most expensive gifts.”
Your neighbour bought a Christmas tree taller than their gate? That is their business.
You? Do the one your pocket can carry. You won’t win a trophy for fighting with your budget.

❌ 2. Christmas is NOT about impressing people
Some people will go broke just to post one “Detty December” picture.
My sister, my brother, nobody will refund you in January o.
People will double tap your picture today and forget it tomorrow. Spend wisely.

❌ 3. Christmas is NOT about buying everything in the market
You don’t need to buy new clothes, new shoes, new curtains, new pots, new bedsheets everything cannot be “new” at once.
If the clothes you have are still fine, wear them with confidence.
Christmas is not a fashion parade.

❌ 4. Christmas is NOT about overthinking your life

Some people start thinking:
“I didn’t achieve much this year.”
“I’m not where I want to be.”
“Everyone is ahead of me.”

Please relax. Christmas is not a reminder of your failures.
It’s a reminder that life is a gift… one you are still unwrapping every day.

❌ 5. Christmas is NOT for only people with money
You don’t need to travel, you don’t need to host a big party, and you don’t need to empty your bank account to enjoy Christmas.
Even a simple meal, good music, laughter in your home, or a quiet day of rest is MORE than enough.

❌ 6. Christmas is NOT about noise
Some people celebrate loudly, some quietly. Both are valid.
Not everyone must attend concerts, parties or street parades.
If your own joy is staying at home, eating rice and binge-watching movies, enjoy it proudly.

❌ 7. Christmas is NOT about comparison
Stop comparing your family, your celebration, your gifts, your achievements or your life to others.
Everybody’s journey is different.
Celebrate at your own pace.

💛 So, what should Christmas really be about?
Peace. Love. Gratitude. Kindness, Love. The love that God showed us by giving us his son Jesus Christ.

Christmas is not a test. It’s a reminder to breathe, smile, and appreciate life, appreciate love and share the joy exactly as it is.

MUST CHRISTMAS ALWAYS BE IN THE HUSBAND’S FAMILY HOUSE? LET’S BE HONEST

Every December, one silent fight always happens in many homes…

“Baby, when are we travelling to my village?”
Your village? Again?

Why is it that once a woman gets married, she automatically becomes Chief Visitor in her husband’s family house every Christmas?

Some women have not spent Christmas with their own parents in 5–10 years.
Meanwhile her mother is at home saying, “My daughter will come this year,”
but daddy’s village people have already booked her like December hotel room.

And the funny part?
If the woman even suggests they should spend Christmas with HER family, the man will act like she just committed a crime.

Some men will say:
“That’s not how we do it in my family. We always go to my father’s house.”
Brother, is your father the president of Christmas?

Let’s be truthful…

Some wives don’t even enjoy going.
Some families treat them like chairperson of kitchen affairs.
No rest. No peace. No love.
Just cooking, cooking, cooking… until 26th.

Meanwhile her own village people are waiting to see their daughter, but she’s in another village washing plates of people that don’t like her.

Why can’t couples do it like this:

One year in his family house
Next year in her family house
Or even stay in THEIR own home and enjoy peace and sleep!

So let me ask you:

➡️ Must Christmas always be in the man’s family house?
➡️ Or should both families be treated fairly?

Let’s talk honestly

Happy Sunday from this side!!

Is this really how the year is ending? Sometimes it feels unbelievable that we are already in December. I can still remember January 1st like it was yesterday.

And now that the year is almost over, it’s easy to feel sad about the things we planned but didn’t achieve.
The trainings we couldn’t attend…
The goals we couldn’t meet…
The job change that didn’t happen…
But if you’re feeling this way, pause for a moment and think again.

You are alive.
You are healthy.
No doctor has told you that you have a terminal illness yet you are still complaining.

You were not kidnapped by bandits but you’re still complaining.

You have a job, something many people are desperately praying for yet you still complain.

You were not in an accident that cost you your legs or your life but you’re still complaining.

Yes, maybe you didn’t achieve everything you wanted in 2025.
Maybe the year didn’t go the way you hoped.

But the fact that you are alive to feel disappointed, alive to think, alive to hope again, is a blessing many people didn’t get.

The dead cannot complain.
But you can because you are still here.

So breathe… and be grateful.
Your story is not over.
The year may be ending, but your life isn’t.
And as long as you have life, there is still hope.



Dec 2025 na God naim run am.

I am grateful lord.

Happy new month.This December shall not be detty, it shall be very clean and honourable for you.Somebody say Amen......

House chores are not only for girls.
Please teach your boys too your future self will thank you.

Two days ago, I came home from work completely exhausted. There was stew in the fridge but no meat, and honestly, I had no strength to start cooking. Earlier that morning, I had already taken some chicken out of the freezer, so I asked my son to boil it and make rice.

Before I knew it, he had boiled the chicken, air-fried it, cooked the rice and served me a hot meal just when my body needed it the most.

Now imagine if he didn’t know how to cook or arrange food. I would have still struggled into the kitchen despite how tired I was.

Sometimes, this is one of the reasons women get worn out quickly.

So please, teach both your sons and daughters home chores.

Share the responsibilities.
Save yourself stress.
Raise balanced children.

Cheers!

Happy Sunday everyone.
