RE: What is Christmas? And Why is it Under Seige?
Xmas has been a time of disruption. If you wanted something at a store, at the mall, i would think about whether i could put off the purchase until January.
I used to put lots of effort into the season, actually buying wrapping paper and gifts at after christmas sales and keeping them perfect for a year. And then, i just got nothing back from it.
So, the joy went away, and the angry people trying to get to the mall got in the way.
It is not a happy time for me.
exactly! I totally agree. The next step is to be happy in spite of the commercialism. But still not participate.
I feel that many people are doing just such... as witnessed by so many stores closing. Or, all the remaining stores being desperate and putting up christmas stock before Thanksgiving. (which is holiday with an even shittier past)
