It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is definitely my favorite holiday because it's a time when everyone is able to find a release from the monotony of everyday life. A time when someone can take refuge from the things that trouble them and just relax with their family and others that they love.
Why? It really doesn't make sense. After all, this is the season of giving, and material ties are what tend to trouble us the most. Why is it that people lighten up so much for the holidays?
The way i see it, we stress ourselves out over work and finances every day, and christmas provides the perfect way to discharge all of your pent up stress. We work so hard for our money, and on christmas, we blow it all on someone else. And it feels great. Parents hunt high and low every year to find Zhu Zhu Pets, Cabbage Patch Kids, Tickle Me Elmos, and other toys for their kids. Why? Because it feels just as good to give as it does to recieve.
Part of what it means to be human is to enjoy material posessions. Bot another part of our humanness is to enjoy putting smiles on the faces of others.
