RE: A Little Bit of Christmas Spirit from Suriname πŸŽ‡

in ReggaeJAHM β€’ 4 years ago

Ou Christmas traditions in my tiny country of the low lands: Well, I suppose its mostly about family dinners, and for some dinners with friends. We celebrate two days of Xmas, usually the first day 25th is with family. The second day (26th) is with friends, or the other part of the family, depends a little from person to person. When I say family dinners, I mean a LOT of food, from the first second to the last of that day, its eating eating and more eating. I suppose one of the old days traditions, was to go to church on Christmas eve, but only a few do. Religion levels are not that high anymore in the Netherlands.

we should always have the Christmas spirit in our hearts all through the year and not just during the holidays

Hear Hear... absolutely agree!

Hope you had a great day yesterday, full of joy and happiness.

Here there are a lot of Christians who still go to church.
It used to be a tradition in my family, but the past few years we didn't follow through with it and now with the partial lockdown, church services are limited to a maximum of five or ten people and some church services go live online. So that's a plus.

Yes, here in Suriname it's also a lot of dinners. At one time we had to make a road-trip of it; four different places in one day. It was crazy, but fun πŸ˜…
Yesterday we had a smaller dinner with just our parents and siblings and am grateful for that.
