For all those that enjoy Christmas I am pleased for them and I hope they have a great time.
As for me, like many, being alone, it does lose its impact and I personally do not celebrate it.
If I had a partner in life then I would see it as another day to spoil her.

I like to spend Christmas with my family and put my feet up.

I do start thinking about (in general) what happens should my mum not be around anymore - I have a good relationship to my siblings and their kids, but going home probably wouldn't be the same and I wouldn't do it as often.

I'm making sure I can live with it someday. I don't know about Christmas, but spending it in Ireland with friends going out on the 24th (that's when we celebrate) would be ok. I would find it hard to sit home on my own.

I love Christmas!

Although not religious, I love all the goodwill, and good-natured ambience around this time.

I love the Christmas lights, cribs, Christmas trees, the whole shebang!

I know it can be a lonely time of year for many, but I choose to make the best of it personally.

A nice break of routine for that everybody can do what they like.

And a few days of extra fun for many children.

I had a very good meal. Stuffed like a goose actually. Then I got nice gifts too. So what is there not to like about a day when folks feed you and give you nice things too?

Every holiday is commercialised nowadays, but it is up to you what you put into it. I love Christmas and I make sure it is all about family and good time spent together.
And if you feel it is just about money spending ...well, you can only blame yourself for that...santa waving

It's not only Christmas, it's the new year also.

An excuse for celebrations.
