My Christmas Babble

So as the holidays approch I've been thinking. What's the point? According to mass media, and the good ol mayans, the worlds going to end at 6:11 AM EST.


Christmas - is that gimmie gimmie gimmie i want i want holiday. The holiday that can put you in debt in about 2 weeks and leave you in it till about the same time it returns next year.

Why must we:

1. Cut down a tree to decorate and leave up in our homes for a month tops. Meanwhile it took them YEARS to get as big as they did?
2. Use even MORE trees to make bows, ribbon, and wrapping paper to hold items for a week or so just to have the bows, ribbon, and wrapping paper end up in the GARBAGE.

LET US NOT FORGET:

1. The gifts you do not want
2. The gifts you recycle
3. The gifts you return
4. The gifts you must buy for a "xmas promise"
5. The gifts SANTA was supposed to bring
6. The gifts you stand in hours for to find out they are sold out
7. The gifts you can't afford
8. The gift they hate
9. The gift they won't use
10. The gift they don't want

Why? Why? Why?   


You can't buy love. Money cant buy love. Money can't make you happy although it could make you comfortable.

Why dont people show they love and care about each other all year round. Maybe have a dinner night once a week instead of only on the holidays.


Am I the only person that feels Christmas is overrated?
