Christmas Spirit


Ho, ho, ho, Merry Christmas!

This will be the first time in years when grandma won't be present with us on Christmas Eve or the two days afterwards. She used to spoil me and my older brother so much, this year has been a weird and sad feeling knowing that our family became smaller.

So I wanted to type a special Christmas blog this year, but had a hard time thinking of a specific subject. It's the most famous holiday in the West, has a long history of religious themes, and it's usually the most wonderful time of the year.

I can really enjoy the mood Christmas brings with us, especially when snow is falling down and building up, traditional songs are playing out and celebrations are all over including the trees, the bells, Santa Claus and of course the presents.

There is a vague coined term called Christmas Spirit where many people try to become better humans and show their good behaviour. It's also a time where family and love are highly important, and we would like to think that no one needs to celebrate it alone.

The Christmas Spirit, or however you would like to call it, is perhaps the best reason and excuse why this holiday exists in the first place. But maybe it's even better as a reminder that people are the happiest when good things happen to them.

Whether by love, a fairy tale or general kindness, Christmas can be considered an innocent celebration of events nowadays. I'm sure that it was celebrated way different in the past, the same goes for Halloween.

In any case I wish you all a happy time with your families, for as long as they can last.
