Christmas

X-mas

Christmas?

That's okay, I'll pass.

Covering a tree with lights

Is there really any point to this?

I don't see one, other than a day for gifts.

Maybe there was a reason for this day once...

But it's been lost in history, too many have forgotten.

Now Christmas is but a day for greed and gifts for children.

What happened?

What happened,

To Christmas?

It has changed.

Too many people just see Christmas as a day to get gifts, most have forgotten the real reason we even celebrate it.
