Why is it that whenever Christmas comes around, no one pays attention to the true meaning? Most people run around stores trying to buy gifts. Is that all they think about?? I love Christmas b/c i get to spend time with my family. i get to see my cousins, aunts, and uncles. and food. i love the food. But to some people, they teach their children that christmas is worthy b/c you recieve presents. Now do not get me wrong, I have a nine-y/o brother. I love to watch him open presents with his big smile across his face. But i also love helpin decorate the house with Baby Jesus scenes. Am I the only one who feels this way. Maybe I have a diff. veiw b/c i am only 13. I aint got kids yet. But i think modern civilization is pulling us away from the true mening of Christmas.
