What Not To Like About Christmas?

Alright, I know the fact that am a Muslim and don't celebrate Christmas, but that was so ancient style. Nowadays, people doesn't treat Christmas as something religious anymore. Of course it is a religious matter but since it celebrates on the 25th day of December which made it the last holiday of the year, oh well, apart from New Year's eve celebration though, if you want to count it as this year celebration, many people in the world nowadays treat Christmas as a tradition rather than a religious ceremonial thing. People all around the world is having their blasts this time of year. Presents, foods, family, parties, wines, trees, decorations, lights, those are Christmas all about. Everyone seems to have something to celebrate on Christmas day. Forget about the fact that it was actually the celebration of Jesus day of birth when God sent him to safe the world, Christmas is more like a family celebration. People make time to go back home to their family at this time of year. No matter how busy they are, Christmas should be your best excuse to be with your love ones without feeling cheesy. It was nice though, spending at least one day a year to be with your folks, having some quality times together, and showing each other what love is about. And when else the best time to do it apart from a week before the year changed? I mean, there are so many holidays in a year, but we were always find an excuse to avoid family and easily say that 'Don't worry, I'll be home next holiday!' without feeling guilty. But when it comes to Christmas, there's no next holiday in the same year afterward. So yeah, you make time for it, end of story!
Funny thing is that at this point everyone doesn't seems to care anymore about work or anything else. All they have in mind were holidays, holidays, and holidays. Even the phone ring sounds like a jingle bell at this point..ha! So hard to pay attention to your job when everywhere in town all that you can see were decoration trees and lights. I can even hear fireworks almost every night during Christmas to new year's eve time. So many parades and festive mode going on! Oh, how amazing!
Then yeah, back to my question above, what not to like about Christmas? Nothing! Absolutely nothing! In fact, there are so many things to like about it! It's the best holiday of the year after all! Totally!

^_^

To all of my dear friends..happy holidays, people!!
