Christmas is my favorite time of the year. I love the Christmas music everywhere you go, the food and drinks, but I think my favorite thing about christmas is the actual day when we all cook something, and at the end of the day we eat all together, dance, exchange gifts, and laugh.
I believe a lot of people have negative feelings about Christmas, but the only reason is because they think that Christmas was designed for us to spend all our money, and stress out about gifts, and I dont disagree with that, but I truly believe that you manifest it however you think it is, it will be. If you think about it in a negative way then thats what it is going to be.
About gifts, all of our ego's make us want to buy someone the biggest, or most expensive gift, but giving a gift isn't about that, its about the though; a sweater, a shirt, a wallet, something you made for the person. Its about giving from your heart. If you dont have enough money to get everyone a expensive or big gift then dont stress about it. Give yourself a budget, for example $25 on each person, go online (Etsy.com is a good place). Then write something nice in a card (you can get a box of cards for about $3 in Marshalls, Ross, or Tj Maxx). If you really dont have the time to go get presents and packing them, then get gift cards but still give the person a card with something you wrote in it, remember its the thought that counts and if you give a card it give the gift a little more effort.
Anyway, I believe if we all start thinking about the holidays in a positive way, then this time will be more enjoyable, and happy. Its about spending time with family. Give love and peace. And I know that we can do that everyday, but if you really think so then do it, but this is just a day and time for that.
I am not going to talk about the religious reasons because thats for you to know, and follow.
