https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWF2JBb1bvM I have watched numerous Christmas Ads in my life time but this one stands out. This Ad to me portrays the true meaning of Christmas, it's not just about the gifts, the foods, the decorations, the religious angle to it, but it's about reaching out to people, getting together with love ones, family, friends, strangers and even sometimes enemies, people you might not get to meet or see all through the year or life time. It's about being caring and sharing with those we love and those that might be less fortunate in the society. If all these can be done during Christmas, why can't we consciously keep doing them all through the year? I'm sure this world would be a better place if we all in our little ways imbibe this spirit of Christmas in our daily lives. Meanwhile this Ad was based on true life story. Yes! it did happen during WW1 in 1914, see link here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_truce I wish you all Merry Christmas!!! |

OP You made me had a teary eye. Why do we fight wars in this world? Why are we so power crazy? Why cant we just find a way to live together. |

ResourceMan:It was so refreshing to see that part despite the war, both sides could still leave their trenches and had a moment of sharing together, care for one another and had fun. |

ResourceMan:Had the same feeling too I mean why cant we all live together, soldiers are human and have families just like everyone else and what annoys me most is most soldiers that die during battle had struggled through out their life without ripping what the sowed some die fighting for what is wrong even they know its wrong but can't disobey orders. |
