“… some people just don’t want to spend time with their family either.”
Please, tell this to my mum. She doesn’t get it; tomorrow another family gathering and I am stressed and afraid of it in the same time.
Not every christmas is going to be special, but we always have tea to drink, and that is comforting to me this time of year. Some people don’t want to visit and some don’t want to tackle 8 tea advents at the same time, lol. To each her own.
I don’t observe Christmas at all, and the whole Christmas Eve/Christmas Day thing are just normal days to me. No family, no presents, no huge feasts, the only difference is my work is closed. I celebrate Festivus on the 23rd, but since the “point” of that holiday is being a low-key secular, non-commercial alternative, my Festivus is pretty much a normal day, too (just one in which I treat myself to a dinner out). My family lives very distant from me so I never see them “for the holidays.” My closest relative is within driving range, but between snow and her working a retail job, this is the absolute worst time of year to visit her, as well.
I’m with you 100% – there is way too much pressure this time of year and not everyone can celebrate (or not) in the way they’d like. I used to love Christmas, mostly the sparkly lights and decorations if I’m being honest, but the last three Christmases have been hard for different reasons. We didn’t decorate this year, and I’ve done my best to pretend it’s just another month, another day. I might regret that later, but it’s too sad for me otherwise.
Martin, I’m not sure if you’ve had your family gathering yet but I’m thinking of you today. I know this feeling and it’s terrible.
