There is tinsle all through our office, random "christmas balls" on desks and a general excitement for the end of the year and the holidays that come with it.
I like Christmas, it's the time i get to see all my family, uncle's, aunt's, nephew's and niece's. A time to eat way too much but most of all a time to have a couple of drinks, tell a story from the year thats about to be gone and most of all throw on a damn big smile.
Now.. for you Grinches!
Stop being such a sad sack, you're ruining it for everyone else!
There is only 1 reason that is excusable for a Grinch and that is a devastating event that happened at Christmas time. If that's not you then be happy.
If you hate it because the shops are packed and you have to battle with everyone to get to that last Ben 10 doll... this is your fault... be more organised!
If you hate it because you think it is just a ploy by retailers to make money. Then try make something around the home... make a santa out of glued pasta to paper or something if you think that will make a child happy because here's the kicker.
CHRISTMAS IS NOT ABOUT YOU
It's about everyone else.
It's a time where you sacrifice something of yours to en-richen someone else's life. If you have nothing to give them for whatever reason. You can still give up some of your time. You are not that busy you can't help someone carry something or even pull a funny face to make a kid laugh who has been dragged around the shops for too long...
Make them make you smile.
Simple!
Merry Christmas
