We chose to attend the night mass for the new year. My son loves the decorations at the church in the night.
The decorations in the Church, unlike the last couple of years, weren’t very delightful to the eyes. Also, it was painful to see people from other religions treating the Church as a tourist spot.
Selfies and the midnight countdown in the Church isn’t the behaviour one would appreciate while the mass is on. Since the Church is a public place, there is nothing much we can do.
We spent the first hour of the New Year, for the Lord and returned home for a good night’s sleep. The morning was filled with play, food and movies. Later, in the evening, we as a family received blessings from both our parents. We ended the day with Polar Bear Ice creams.
I’m grateful to the Almighty for adding another year to my life.
