I do it to keep the Holiday Depression away. Otherwise, I would find a hole, crawl in it and pull it in after me until after New Year’s Day.
This way, it’s not too depressing to be alone.
Well, if it helps, remember Jesus only got Christmas presents once, and it wasn’t on December 25th. For most of His life He had no home and nothing to call His own. All He had was 12 close friends - except one of them arranged to have Him killed and the other 11 ran like scared puppies when He was arrested.
You, on the other hand, have us. So you have that to be glad about.
