Where the excitement for Christmas went?
Is this season of the year again, the time passed so fast, Christmas it's coming but I don't feel as excited as before. I used get hyped up for the holidays, I liked to set up the tree and make decorations, plan our food and go shopping. I see people already making all this things, but I don't feel like doing any.
I've never had a sad or low effort Christmas, my family usually plans at least a tiny party so it's weird that I don't feel the Spirit of Christmas. Christmas used to be fun, but as the years go by my excitement it's getting lower and lower. Maybe it's because as children we were "allowed to run around and play" it was also a day when we got gifts, but now there's not more children at home, everyone it's doing their own thing and adults like me pass all day eating (at least it's what I do since I don't like to party).
When I was a kid I would play with my new toys at my home, watch TV and eat lots of candy, I have great memories of fun times in Christmas. Now as an adult I prepare the food, eat, often play board games if someone it's in the mood too and that's all.
Maybe listening to Christmas songs would put me in the mood, but as far as today, Christmas doesn't feel special anymore, it's just one more day of the year.
Thanks for reading :)
