I've been recently seeing threads of "What are you getting for Christmas?" since of course, the holidays are almost here. But then I realized a question which was, what does Christmas mean to you? Christmas can differentiate throughout the generations/ages, kids can view it as receiving presents, others see it as spending time with your loved ones, others can view it religiously, while some people don't celebrate Christmas at all.
Honestly when I was a small child, I always thought of presents when I heard the word Christmas. Although as I got older, I started viewing Christmas in a different aspect such as a traditional get together with my family.
As the title is says, what does Christmas mean to you?

 

Its a day when we order pizza, i'm just kidding xD.

 

I didn't really understand what Christmas was when I was younger. I just assumed I had 2 birthdays.

As I got older, I always thought of it about just getting presents and about Jesus' birthday, because, well, I live in Utah and this place is religion everywhere :p

Today I basically view it as getting together with my family and occasionally every few years we invite some friends to spend it with us, like this year c: And of Jesus and of Presents and Food :p

 

I'm not Christian, but my grandparents are, thus I celebrate.

but on topic

food.
I love the food, it's amazing

 

Christmas is a time to forget about your differences with people and get fat.

 

I Think It Is A Time To Spend With Your Family

 

I think Christmas is about sharing and being with your family :>

 

Christmas is a day to celebrate the birthing of Jesus. I don't really like how Christmas has lost a lot of it's meaning. Most people only focus on gifts and decorating ect...

I'll stop before this turns into a rant. But yee.

Also I like food too.

 

Same eat all da food

 

To me, Christmas is about having a fun time with your family, and rejoicing over all the good things you or your family have done this year and hopefully being a better person next year.

To me, the presents aren't a very big deal anymore, it's more making sure my family is happy

 

YAY PRESENTS

 

A time of dispair, then I get to go to church on Christmas day.

 

To me Christmas is so spiritual and wonderful to me...nah! I'm getting razor naga dat all I need and want
