Rudolph the red nosed reindeer!

"Santa Claus is coming to town." 
Yearly we sing this song repeatedly, "We are targeting the imagination of kids 10 years old and below."

This is a hope for kids.
We tell it to them.

The question is what the hope for the grownups is!
let me rephrase the question: "what are the grownups celebrating in christmas?"

"Santa Claus is coming to town." 

the funny thing is that, the entire world talks about this nonexistent fictional character, whom we are waiting annually hopelessly, moreover we sing about an imaginary dear named Rudolf who pulls the Santa's sleigh!
Hey! 
Take care; do not talk about the Jesus Christ. You are not allowed to mention him, it is no longer Christmas, it is holidays. Happy holidays, instead of saying merry Christmas.
You can mention Santa, you can mention Rudolph. But not the baby jesus and Mary.

My ultimate question I face every year when I attend one of the many Christmas carols, what am I doing here!
What are they celebrating? What does santa or the deers mean to anyone?
when I tell you that the average age attending these concerts are 23.

What are we telling them!!

This is the conclusion i get, "People (including me as one of the people) feel safer with a non sense, nonrealistic fantasia hopes rather than a real more serious more costly hope!!"

People are ready to celebrate yearly the coming of the fiction character Santa with his Rudolph. rather than celebrating the truth whom was born in bethlehem. 

No one mentions the kid!
the real born king whom was born really in the hearts of people.

Whom the kings traveled hundreds of miles to just see him, where the angels couldn't hide and poor shepherds witnessed the ultimate angel's joys.

After thinking those deep thoughts, i wave my red hat childishly with the white ball at the end of it, and sing

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
(reindeer)
Had a very shiny nose
(like a light bulb)
And if you ever saw it
(saw it)
You would even say it glows
(like a flash light)
All of the other reindeer
(reindeer)
Used to laugh and call him names
(like Pinochio)
They never let poor Rudolph
(Rudolph)
Play in any reindeer games
(like Monopoly)

Where i sing loud with the audience.

Merry christmas

May the peaceful born child restore the missing hope and peace in our grownup weary hearts.

"Glory to God in the highest [heaven], and on earth peace among men with whom He is well pleased [men of goodwill, of His favor]." Luke 2:14
