"Give me presents day" is approaching and I was wondering why people celebrate it, it could be for religious reasons, social reasons and so on, please share.
Its a time where my family and I meet up for a day, have fun, give each other gifts and have a nice meal together for the first time in ages.
My Mum, Uncle and I aren't Christians while the rest of my family are but even so, they aren't hardcore religious nuts and don't talk about Jesus and God all the time. (Thank goodness)
I refer to it as Christmas for convenience sake, because like I said earlier most of my family are Christian and they look at me as if I'm a weirdo for not calling it Christmas. I don't celebrate it for some fictional character but rather for my family and they celebrate it for family time too, so I don't understand why they react in that way. =/
I'm still not in the festive mood.
Does anybody else want to share what December 25th means to them?
