Christmas thoughts...:-<



Now it's time, time for our annual 'let´s buy things and give them just to get something in return' party, the gift is apparently the most important - is it really worth getting stressed up about? ... In my opinion, no. The gift should be intended to demonstrate the giving spirit of christmas, is stress very giving. Hardly.

Every year around this time, people have to balance their budgets, take loans, just to buy bigger, better and more impressive gifts. The fabricants know this, the consumers are willing to pay overprice, hense the fact that they don't have any alternative what so ever, and you can't give nothing.

What counts the most, the gift or the thought?
We all say, hey it's the thought that counts, but we still get disappointed if we don't get exactly what we wished for - we always tell ourselves that the thought is the thing that counts the most, when we get a present that we didn't exactly wish for. So all the time the person that bought the gift had spent, planning, concidering, working to earn the money for the present were all misspent, since they failed to warm your hearts and just get a little acted 'thank you so much, I'm so happy'.

Is it all just a waste of time, who knows - christmas is supposed to be the fest of hearts - it was intented to be a heartwarming season with love and caring, all in the giving spirit of christmas. I hardly ever see any love amongst the shoppers in the city or elsewhere. Hardly anyone has the time to stop and talk, because they have to rush to buy all the presents.

Don't ever forget what christmas is about.
And have a good one.
Merry Christmas
