Holidays have never quite been our thing.
With all the overhyped commercialism, it can suppose pretty cynical to me.
I also hate that our consumer culture pushes us to begin shopping for christmas while the Heating and A/C cooling system is still running. It absolutely gets to me to see Christmas adverts or decorations in stores at Labor Day. This feeling is in direct competition with our innate care about for the sentiment of the holiday season. I absolutely love the cozy, family feeling of that time of year. And, I think all of us all tend to be a bit nice to each other. Although, that is something else that is waning in our new culture. My extended family tends to do a bit of going to see during that time of year and all of us care about those partys. Our immediate family absolutely cares about to do a bunch of decorating during the holidays. In fact, the day after halloween, I am sent to the attic to bring down all the holiday decorations.
