[QUOTE="Miss C, post: 553757, member: 1041"] Absolutely. Christmas is what you make it, why get pissed off with it and loose sight of its purpose because people exploit it? People exploit EVERYTHING, accept it, don't let that detract from the happiness it can bring. Simply, instead of being bitter about it, just don't be exploited, you don't have to buy anything, nobody is forcing you; make something, say something nice, or at the very least just enjoy the TV & good grub. True friends will understand your position. I'm in love with xmas. Quite simply, because of that general air of happiness, amongst everyone :heart: its the nicest, nicest feeling. What in the world is better than everyone being happy together and having an excuse to celebrate together and validate their love for one another? Its pure magic. The only other time you get a natural high in the air like that is on a really sunny day, maybe when England has won a big football match, and [B]everyone[/B] is in high spirits, taking time off work, celebrating [B]together[/B]. Its that feeling of [B]shared[/B] love, warmth (inner!), happiness, unity, family.....festive spirit that we're innately attracted to. Nothing matters because its xmas, forget your problems temporarily nomatter how big, go home to your family and your cat, and snuggle up in front of the vicar of dibley, be humble, and eat cake.....or even better, go see a pantomime!! Christmas is, like it or not, always going to be part of our lives, you're stuck with it, tough excrement. You either choose to shun it, and inevitably loose out (like Scrooge), or embrace it and enjoy it in [B]your own way[/B], take and make the most of whatever positives you can get out of it, and [B]choose[/B] to make it a happy time (like Davey Crocket), if for no other reason than its the most logically beneficial option. If you don't, the 3 xmas ghosts will come and show you that you are destined to have miserable xmasses for the rest of your life for no reason other than your own stubborness. I don't mean to be insensitive, I know its a heck of a struggle for some people, money and loneliness being the biggest shitters :( And thats always the way unfortunately. But just look at Li'l Davey Crocket, even with nothing, there is something to smile about.........even if its just because its Christmas :) . On a sidenote, i'm not bloody done with summer yet!
