The popularity of the Christmas song “White Christmas” is still being played continuously every time December chill comes around. The song reminds the people that Christmas is already around the corner. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, The song “White Christmas” by Bing Cosbie was the number 1 music hit single of all time, making 50 million sales as recorded in the history books of the music industry of America.
Although the snowy thing in the song do really happen in most part of the world, notwithstanding “White Christmas” was felt by the rest of the world through its cool and smooth beat with touching sound to hear about. And dreaming of “White Christmas” became a wish for every Christians who believes the celebration of Christ birth.
In this time of celebration, the gestures of love, forgiveness, happiness, giving, understanding and PEACE prevails. As always, this Yule season is not without gifts, lavish meals, parties and other stuff that makes people enjoy this once a year celebration. This kind of celebration symbolizes “White Christmas” as it is purely happiness and without the appearance of sadness.
But the celebration stops there where a massive “wall of inequality” separates happiness from sadness and merrymaking to idling. In this side of the fence, people haven’t used to celebrating Christmas obviously because poor they becomes. Dreaming of “White Christmas” is even more impossible as to dream of foods and gifts are likewise next to impossible.
The spirit of Christmas holds promise to all, though inconclusive. The poor people regards Christmas as a year-end celebration of sort. Wherefore, they just look up to Christmas as a “celebration of prayers” for God to give them answer about the sad reality they face in everyday life. To celebrate Christmas through prayers is what poor people makes happy in spirit. But to celebrate it with ostentatious display is what the rest of the people makes happy materially. And so, “Blue Christmas” is gloomy to the poor but in essence prayer makes them happy no end.
