Pasko, Paksiw, Pasko, Paksiw

On this side of the globe, neither PASKO nor PAKSIW exists. They have Christmas Trees, Lights, decors and other stuff alright.. all these external manifestations add to the christmassy feeling.. all for the love of western culture. I wonder if people here suffer from indigestion due to the fact that they would devour anything that comes in a western package... Ecce commercialism!!

Don't be surprised if your Christmas decors all come from here.. With the snow and stuff, one can feel the season without having to shred and shake Perla soap until it foams.

Well, the challenge remains.. How to let the students go deeper into the real meaning of this season.. The job will surely be easier since the externals point to the reality that Christmas is indeed a season to reckon with. Christmas Tree? Holiday Tree? anyone..
