25th of December was originally celebrated as the festival to celebrate the unconquered sun god at the winter solstice. Later this feast was assimilated as the birthday of Jesus as he was considered the sun of righteousness. This is one of the theories. As a child, Christmas holidays were associated with studying as immediately after the school reopened , there was the 3rd Unit test. Today, I am in the same mode , urging my daughters to study during their holidays... Christmas , as a festival has undergone a transformation. From a mere Christians festival , today,it has become an ever growing web of connecting , celebrations, roast turkey lunches, gifts!. Its no longer a festival but a SPIRIT!!!
