Walking around the shops recently I couldn't help but hear people moaning about Christmas. They were moaning about the all the fuss and cost just for one day of the year, yet there they were trolleys full of trees and decorations in the scrum of a supermarket! I agree that Christmas is over hyped and over commercialised, but that is only because deep down we enjoy it and with all the doom and gloom around, too right we should all enjoy it.
Christmas shouldn't be about the biggest tree with the most amount of lights as possible, nor should it be about expensive presents. Really it should be about getting together with family and friends and being grateful for the chance of being together. Forget about the stresses of everyday life, and for one day enjoy being together. If you feel the need to spend a handful of cash to decorate to get in the festive mood then do it, Christmas is the one day when we can all forget our troubles and celebrate.
