Christmas is the one moment most of us look forward to.Getting together, celebrating, baking. Christmas has a special meaning to it people don’t take a lot of things for granted.for children it’s all about whether they have been naughty or nice to see if Santa Claus will come.For adults it’s more of the time that you share together or helping out or having time that you donate to things like the Salvation Army,Food Drive,Supper. It’s like the feeling when you have waited 365 days for the one moment when you open presents and everyones face is glowing and in their eye is a little twinkle.
You either like Christmas or you don’t. Most people that don’t like Christmas had something like a death or having to do something when you were younger that made you not want to even celebrate the holiday. Christmas is the season for giving. Appreciating others is a big factor of Christmas like when your parents try so hard to get you what you want and then you don’t like it and you tell them that they would probably be mad or sad. Mad because you they had the urge to say they didn’t like it. Sad because you tried so hard and it didn’t get you anywhere.
I think of Christmas a time of joy. Like when you are in church and you are singing Christmas songs, when you are baking with your grandma, when you are hanging ornaments on the Christmas tree, setting out a plate of cookies to give to Santa. All of those things have a special meaning to them that you won’t forget and it will be a highlight to do every year which would then create a tradition.
Some people get the meaning of Christmas while others don’t. Most kids don’t know any better that it’s all for the presents, while on the other hand once you get older you still like the presents but you know Christmas is about being together, spreading traditions, enjoying the time we have making the best out of every bad tradition. Things like donating to the food shelter, Salvation Army, suppers all of these things make a lot of people feel happy and makes them feel good about themselves that they have done the right thing.
I would feel bad for someone who didn’t have christmas like whether it was a different religion or they couldn’t afford it. Christmas is a time of joy and happiness. Everyone should be celebrating this moment that comes once a year. A lot of people wait for the month of December to come because everyone is so thankful of what we have and appreciate the little things not the big things that come with life. It’s not about what we receive it’s what we have learned and what we know that makes the holiday so special.
So with that I think Christmas is more about the presents we get and don’t get. It’s about giving thanks and appreciating what others do for us. Celebrating that we don’t have a different religion that we don’t have Christmas with.Whether you are a kid you you want to be nice so you can get a present because that’s what it’s all about or whether you just donate your time and money to causes that can’t experience it.
