This christmas feels like nothing more than a monthly communion. The speciallity of it being yearly is gone, because with age each year goes by so much faster and suddenly we're back in december and Im having a hard time focusing in church because "I was JUST here!?" okeee.. 6am, time to wind down.

it's weird.. I know exactly what you mean, but the first time that i realized how CRAZY christmas is... was this year. my parents of course asked me what I want... and I stopped and thought about it, and i was like... I get everything I want... on this one special morning... with no strings attached? what the hell is it all about... we've made christmas into a completely different thing than it was meant to be... i love buying presents for other people, but receiving them feels real fuckin weird......... although deep down i know i enjoy it. eh...

Its the recieving-gifts from relatives I do not know or talk to at any other time in the year, other than Christmas - that feels funny. Like the whole "no strings attached" thought, the idea of getting together one day out of the year and recieve gifts like we have been chummy for ages is an odd aspect of culture. Indeed :)
"See you all next year!"

but sometimes all you have is the rare occasion where the holidays brings your family together... you take what time you can get, and look forward to next year when you get the window out of many busy lives.
