Foreword
Once a year there comes a time which awakens the most distinct emotions in the hearts of the people on earth. This time is ushered in and accompanied by the icy,supposedly most depressing season of the year, winter.The icy weather of winter hides the vast landscape in its coat of white flaky coldness. The days get longer and plunge the landscape into what feels like eternal darkness. Almost everything looks bleak and barren, but this time always arouses a feeling of anticipation in the perished bodies of mankind.
This incomparable time bears the name: Christmas
Christmas,the supposed festival of love and charity,is,at least for the large majority of people who celebrate it, one of the most beautiful and anticipated times of the year. Many associate good memories with this festival, its wonderful smells of good, hearty food,distinctive decoration and getting together with family, loved ones or acquaintances with whom they decided to spend this delightful time together. Gifts, love, and a careful attitude play a meaningful role. Just as beautiful are the old or new traditions and the free vacation to simply free yourself from your stressful everyday life. All of this sounds almost too good to be true.
Nevertheless,Christmas also has its downsides to it that most Christmas fanatics do not seem to recognize. For many, Christmas creates even more stress. How many people actually hate the idea of giving and receiving presents, or would rather avoid the family getting together for various reasons. The annoying weight gain, full streets as well as the excessive media coverage all contribute to the fact that people prefer to leave the holidays behind them as quickly as possible and return to their everyday life. There are many more reasons to dislike Christmas. In addition to love and care, there is a lot of envy, hatred and resentment among people.
Christmas often brings out people's true faces and facets,whether they are good or bad. With all this in mind, the question arises: Is Christmas really that important and if it is,then what is so important about it?
