The origin of Christmas: Christmas is the "Shundan Festival"

Time flies in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, it is Christmas Festival again, and there are many feelings in the deepest part of my heart. Yes, Jesus was born in a stable in Bethlehem, a virgin Mary, a Nazarene in Palestine. The day of his birth was December 24th. Because that day was the birth of the son of God, everyone felt safe and happy, so it was called the night of peace, and December 25th was a natural Christmas in the west. The birth of Jesus paved the way for the Jewish nation to get rid of the rule of the Roman Empire. He was the savior in the eyes of the Jews, and Christianity became the state religion of the Roman Empire, which has always influenced the later Byzantine Empire and Charlemagne Empire. The idea of freedom, equality and fraternity advocated by Christianity, which is in line with the declaration of human rights that everyone is born free and equal, and the American declaration of independence that everyone is free and equal before the creator, has always been favored by mankind.

Christmas is the birth day of Jesus and the origin day of ancient Roman mythology and philosophy. As early as BC, they knew that December 25th is the shortest day in a year. From this day on, the days will get longer and longer, just like the "winter solstice" in China, but we all think that Christmas is colder than the "winter solstice", but it seems that their algorithm is more accurate. Of course, one thing is clear, that is, Jesus was born in the cold winter. He was born in poverty and died on the cross, all to save our souls, so the meaning of the birth of Christ is also great. Thank God. Yes, Santa Claus wearing a red cotton-padded jacket, a lush Christmas tree and golden bells caught our eyes early, so that we can look forward to Christmas and give ourselves a reason to relax, be crazy and entertain: Christmas is "Shun Dan Festival"!

Yes, blow the horn of happiness, interpret the auspicious rhythm, light the lights of peace, ring the Christmas bell, send out holiday greetings and send Christmas wishes. May you be happy and happy with Christmas. Really, the Christmas in my impression is always so comfortable and pleasant. The December in my impression is not cold in winter at all, but warm in spring. In the plum blossom season, there is joy everywhere, leaving the fierce competition on weekdays behind. Isn't it? Christmas is a carnival. You will see Santa Claus hanging on the glass of restaurants, restaurants, cinemas, coffee bars and so on, and the words "merry x-mas" will be sprayed. Couples dressed in pure white "angel costumes" wandered around a brightly lit shopping street. The consumption of this festival * * * represents the linear rise of the per capita consumption level of the country. "Ping An Fruit", you can ask a foreigner, do you wrap apples in floral paper and give them to each other at Christmas? Of course, you will be puzzled by foreigners-in Chinese, the word "ping" of apple is homophonic with the word "ping" of Christmas Eve, so it is certainly not surprising to eat "ping" fruit on a peaceful night! At the same time, Christmas has become Valentine's Day! There are many traditional Christmas gifts. In addition to the beautifully decorated Christmas tree, there are also Valentine's Day gifts such as roses and chocolates, and the sales of roses are extremely hot. Christmas and St. Valentine's Day, two things that have nothing to do with each other, have come together organically in China, bringing out the best in each other.

"Christmas Eve is full of stars, which is to ask Santa Claus to give people a blessing. When every starlight touches your eyes, it will turn into gentle love to care for your sweet dreams until dawn. " Christmas Eve and Christmas were originally western festivals. When these two festivals spread to our country, only young people generally liked them, but foreigners in China paid great attention to them. English people celebrate Christmas, just like the smell of our old calendar year. Customary religion, this day is simply "New Year's Day". It is said that this was already the case in the seventh century. From the 14th century to the middle of the 18th century, although the "New Year's Day" was changed to March 25th, the situation was still the same.

"The messenger of a peaceful night, I want to report peace to you, with this yearning and warm wishes." "Silent Night", as its name implies, more represents a blessing for the coming year and a beautiful expectation and wish for the coming new year. More hope is to spend this month in the last year safely. Yes, peace is people's wish and sincerity is our happiness. At present, we are not a society where everyone is equal. We are the masses of the people. We hope that our country can become a truly fair and reasonable society one day earlier, so that all our people can live a good life. Therefore, the symbol of Christmas Eve is also a blessing to our people and a wish for peace to our families.

In the plum blossom season, there is joy everywhere, leaving the fierce competition on weekdays behind. Christmas is in China. Traditional festivals seem to be getting farther and farther away from our lives, but more and more foreign festivals have come into our lives, such as Mother's Day, Father's Day, Valentine's Day, April Fool's Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas and so on. Think about it. Westerners can really enjoy it. On such a festival, people revel in the city that never sleeps, enjoy the splendor, share exquisite gifts, taste delicious meals and enjoy a happy mood, which makes them feel envious. Nowadays, many people especially like to celebrate Christmas. China people can also enjoy romance and elegance. It's really good. They can indulge themselves, regardless of reunion or etiquette. They can do whatever they want. In short, Christmas is to commemorate and celebrate the arrival of Jesus Christ in the world.

I wish you all a happy holiday.

I sincerely hope that more friends can understand the true meaning of Christmas. May everyone have peace in the Lord, especially the brothers and sisters in the Lord pray for each other, which is too worthwhile.

Some people think that with the continuous progress of our society, people's minds are constantly open, and many western lifestyles have been accepted by most people in China, which means that many traditional things have been forgotten by people, and the traditional culture we abandoned is the spiritual pillar of a nation, so we are punished for ignoring it. When dealing with foreign religions and foreign festivals, and local religions such as Buddhism, we should not have antagonistic feelings, let alone conflict with each other, and should establish a harmonious relationship. Although different religions have different doctrines, their respective precepts and laws have similarities. These precepts and laws all stipulate that we should stop evil and promote good, be compassionate and teach people fraternity. Since the precepts and laws are basically the same, religions should respect and tolerate each other.

With the mutual exchange and infiltration of Chinese and Western cultures, Christmas has quietly occupied the lives of Chinese people and become our festival. There are more and more people who believe in foreign religions, such as Catholicism and Christianity. They build churches, worship and lead a normal religious life, and their religious activities are also accepted by the non-religious people. As for foreign festivals, such as Christmas, when they come to China, they can make everyone revel heartily and enjoy themselves with relish. Isn't this what caters to and satisfies everyone's desire to enjoy themselves? Although this festival is not a legal holiday in our country, it has been integrated into our society, so we have no reason to exclude it and discriminate against it. We should learn to accept holiday culture with rational thinking, learn to appreciate holiday flavor and joy with emotional affection, make ourselves an important match, illuminate people's eyes, illuminate the development path of culture and add a new luster to Christmas.

Besides, accepting foreign cultures and learning from others not only reflects the generosity and style of Chinese people. We should learn from the quality and cultivation of people in western countries-this is the essence of the Christian spirit! Christmas every year is a time to take stock of the year's harvest and make good wishes, rather than simply celebrating and having fun! Is it also the expectation and expectation for the next year? Of course, we are commemorating Jesus' Christmas, and we should not completely forget our Confucian founders and the roots of our national culture. In other words, although December 25th was only a short day, it left us a long history and culture. In Christmas, we can reflect on our behavior with gratitude, carry forward the past and forge ahead, sow hope and create the future.

The city is full of splendor, and the pines and neon lights compete for brilliance. Dare to teach Red Hat to change firecrackers and treat Christmas as spring. Oh, Christmas, you western immigrant, how much laughter have you pinned on our new generation of young people? You are snow. When wintersweet blooms, it comes and goes silently. You are the wind, without a trace, but you set off the festive laughter. You are still a pure heart, which is getting brighter and brighter in the increasingly dirty corner. You throw a childish smile in the snow, melting snowflakes and melting the fragments in people's hearts. His name is Christmas, and the glory he once had is engraved in our hearts. Remember his appearance, but also remember his smile. Who wouldn't be infected in the elegant atmosphere of Christmas in the past? I vaguely remember that laughter opened with wintersweet and fell with wintersweet. Dear children, Christmas is an action day of love. As long as we learn to love and give, then we will celebrate Christmas every day! I don't know whether this is a fact or a dream, but it doesn't matter whether it is a fact or a dream, because people all over the world should be able to live a happy life in the future or not.

Christmas is romantic because of you; Starlight, bright because of you; Elk, lovely because of you; Carol, because you become cheerful; Santa Claus has become more diligent because of you. "I miss you, especially on Christmas Eve. I always entrust Santa Claus with my wishes. No matter what happens tomorrow, I will pray silently for you forever." The snowflakes on the Christmas tree fall silently, and the melodious bells in the distance open up your heart and mine, the affection between human beings, the warmth of heaven, countless Christmas blessings, that friendship, and the accumulated happy memories, whether we know each other or not, as long as you are from the earth. May your Christmas be full of warmth, peace and the joy of reuniting with your loved ones. I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Sunlight flows through your fingers, the bells of Christmas ring, and the thoughts of blessing drift away ... Cherish what you have and let love spread all over the world.

Happiness should be a feeling. Because there are roses, there is beautiful love; Because there is a blue sky, there is a dream of flying. Dear heavenly father, please help us remember the birth of Jesus, so that we can share the singing of angels, the joy of shepherds and the worship of doctors; Help us close the door of hatred and open the door of love to the world; Let goodwill accompany every gift, and let goodwill accompany every greeting; With the blessing of Christ, lead us out of evil; Teach us to rejoice with a clean heart. The bell pierced the silence, and joy rippled everywhere. Another white Christmas, how desirable. May the silver chorus of the church gently brush your elegant skirt and feel a quiet and peaceful love! Send you a hexagonal snowflake, one with happiness, the other with happiness, the other with happiness, the other with romance, the other with sweetness and blessings. I wish you a safe night and good health!

May we be happy to be your children on the morning of Christmas!

On Christmas night, let's go to sleep with gratitude!
