eh heh new blog. The old one is too old and too crazy. Anyway holidays have been going pretty well it feels like I'm sec 4 again just that I know my O'level results already but I still havent collected my cert from school. ( Its been sitting in PHS office for about a year already) so..I was reading around websites and I came across a really interesting article. http://news.sg.msn.com/top-stories/article.aspx?cp-documentid=3753745 Quoted from the article, "Santa should get off his sleigh and walk, and lay off the brandy and mince pies, says an Australian study published Thursday that criticises Father Christmas for being a bad role model for children. The current image of Santa Claus promotes obesity, drink-driving, speeding and an unhealthy lifestyle, says a study from Australia's Monash University published in the British Medical Journal." and.. "Santa should go on diet and the tradition of leaving him cookies, mince pies, milk, brandy or sherry should cease, it says. Instead, he could share the carrots and celery sticks often left for his reindeer. "Santa might also be encouraged to adopt a more active method to deliver toys -- swapping his reindeer for a bike or simply walking or jogging," the study says." HAHA. Meet ODAC santa. We live in a crazy world, with people crazy over things of the world. But it also shows us that we have forgotten about the real meaning behind christmas. Christmas wasn't about santa, santa is entirely fictional, but christmas was all about Christ. Jesus Christ. The day a saviour was born to the world. Its a day worth celebrating. I guess with all that doubt inside of me and insecurity I still can rejoice in the fact that I have a God that is bigger than my reality. |
