Feelin' the Christmas Vibe

            It’s almost that time of year again.  No, I’m not talking about Thanksgiving, though we should all be very thankful to your family and friends.  I am talking about Christmas.  That time of year where families reunite, celebrate, give, and have fun throughout the entire day.

            The reason why families celebrate Christmas is because people can get lonely.  Instead of stressing about school, or work wouldn’t you rather spend more time with your family?  The caroling, the gifts, the food, and the joyful cheers are what make that special atmosphere for Christmas.

            Did you know that the true meaning of Christmas is love? Main reason why I like Christmas is because it reminds me of my childhood when I used to go to my auntie’s house, receive presents, feast, and enjoy the vibe the family is giving off.  It’s just a wonderful time of the year where we all let go of the pasts and come together.   Christmas caroling, building a snowman, and decorating your Christmas tree is what I like to do the most during this time. My family is so into the Christmas vibe that my parents even setup the Christmas tree before Halloween even came. It comes to show, how much we appreciate this time of year, and how content we are.

            The custom of gifting people on Christmas day goes back to Roman festivals.  The gifts started out from twigs to jewelry, which gradually became very common to give presents around this time of the year.  Another thing that is very common during Christmas is its music.  Most of the music is pretty entertaining and good. It makes you feel very “jolly”.  The vibe that Christmas gives off makes you very peaceful.  A fact that I think is awesome is that around 95% of Americans say that they celebrate Christmas. I hope that everyone has a wonderful time, and can also feel the same vibe that Christmas gives off to me.

I’d also like to share a song I listen to every year that makes me feel very content.
