Christmas is different for everyone.. It brings back great childhood memories for me.. for some it's very religious.. I like to celebrate it with my grandkids, and to see their eyes light up is my present.. I made them a big winter wonderland to view.. It's a time of peace and relaxation time...
@Allelse i loved it at ur age too but as i grow older and my parents not really present and brothers are distant... i feel christmas is somewhat lost. it’s just me and my husband. if i didn’t have him i prob wouldn’t even observe it.
As an adult I've done all I can to make sure Christmas for me is simply my wife and I, so my mother dying or my family dying wouldn't make much a difference for me.
we take joy but christmas festivités still seem more about kids. the shopping and preparation the santa stuff the carols — heavily centred on kids@SW-User
