Christmas is the time of gifts, and giving, and receiving, blah blah blah and spending.
I'm not here to be all "shun spending" though, I encourage it. Why? Because, all year long we trade from thinking about ourselves, to sometimes thinking about others, and then back to ourselves . (Face it, humans are selfish). Then we hit thanksgiving, and we're all..
"aww man, look at all my great stuff, I'm so glad I have it + family"
"Hold that thought!" Says Christmas spirit and Ernie.
Since you have all your nice stuff, and you're thankful, lets think about others for a change (point: Christmas is about others). Don't worry about overspending on Christmas (I do not condone getting into debt), relax a little, buy some nice gifts for your loved ones. Make them if you have to, and if you're going to do that, really put some time and effort into it, make something :awesome:
Why am I saying this? Because everyone likes getting big gifts, I like it, you like it, your best friend likes it. It never mattered how many you got, if you got that one super awesome really cool and really big present, you were good.
Man, where am I going with this? Sometimes I don't even...
The point is, Christmas IS about others, so don't be afraid to treat them nicely, as the good Lord said: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" (or something like that, don't quote me).
- Yay Christmas Spirit.
