What happened to the Christmas spirit, is spending time with family so hard nowadays? Why can't you just be grateful for the amazing things they have done for you and will probably continue to do
(1/2) I don't give a shit about getting presents. I miss my childhood Christmases because I got to spend time with all my cousins and all my aunts and uncles and my grandparents and basically most of my family having a delicious dinner, having a great time and enjoying each other's company. I will admit that because I was a kid, I enjoyed the presents a lot because what kid wouldn't want new toys? Now, all my cousins are grown up, out of college. My brother is in the army, my dad is always working, I'm currently in college, the rest of my family lives so far away and I don't even have a mom to spend Mother's Day with so this day it's just another day to me. I miss spending time with the family. Kids these days don't appreciate what they have when they have it which fucking pisses me off because some of us aren't as lucky as them. All they care about is materialistic shit which doesn't last. I would rather go back to a time when my family was still around. When my family would gather up
(2/2) couple of times a year, whether it was a holiday type gathering or not. Now, if I'm lucky enough to see them once a year that is a great blessing to me. I miss it and while some of you ungrateful kids have it, you don't appreciate it. People these days need to learn to appreciate what they have while they still have it. Sorry for this long rant. It's just things like these that piss me off. When kids these days care more about whether they got the newest gadget rather than what's more important. Family.
I agree, we haven't had presents at my house for 6 years and they have been some of the BEST Christmases we've had because it's just the 4 of us (I have a small family) we get like one small thing a piece and that's it we spend the rest of the day going through old photos and cooking dinner, I love it because I will miss my family one day but I will never miss "things"
