Christmas

I guess since I never celebrated Christmas until now, there are still things that I do not understand fully. In the end, what is being celebrated doesn't really matter. It is the comfort you get from being with family, the excitement of whatever small gifts you are going to get, and seeing the smiles of people you love. Even if it's one day a year, everybody is better for it afterwards. This monologue is incredibly cringe. But I see better now, why we do the things we do.
