Whether you celebrate the birth of the Risen Christ

Or get take-out Chinese food to eat with your family

Whether you celebrate the dawning of the Light of the World

Or just bring a big bucket of KFC home

Whether you celebrate the introduction of the New Covenant

Or are still smoky from a Solstice bonfire

Whether you celebrate the Birth by the Virgin Mary, Mother of God

Or are hunkering down in the eye of calm between the holiday rush and the post-holiday rush

Whether you wake to the gifts of Saint Nicholas

Or are just confused about what these laowai are going on about

Merry Christmas!

You too!

I feel as if I've known you for ... well ... seconds!

I hope next Christmas we are back to normal

Merry Christmas, avancemos!

Merry Christmas
