It is the time of the year that you see all the new family additions and the odd ones and somehow this special meal eaten together that is so rich and bountiful facilitates each member of the family to be joyful in being in company of each other. This is also the time that family reminisces on expired ones as well. The family shares with their members their new vision for the oncoming year. It is a time of family reflection. Also it a time to do community service, serving the poor or defranchised, or neglected brothers,sisters and children of the community. Love is to given to those who have less than you and me and not to rob them of their dignity or worse, steal of the little valuable they have. Show Mercy on others as Our Father shows you.
