I know there are other holidays coming up too,but I just wanna focus on these three for right now.
I don't know why, but I'm so ready for the Christmas season to begin this year. I've been listening to Christmas songs for the past 2 weeks!!! I'm usually all about Thanksgiving, but I haven't been as excited about it these last few years. I think it's because my cousin got killed a week before Thanksgiving back in 2018. It hasn't been the same since. But I'm so ready for Christmas 🎄🎅🏾
There has been quite a bit of tragedy in my family as well lately, and so I haven't even given the holidays much thought and have just been staying afloat (right now I'm doing okay, but I'm in the "numb" stage, I guess you could say). As a matter of fact, this time of year is typically when my anxiety goes through the roof and I have a hard time just enjoying the time with family. I don't know why it's this way, but has been for years. I guess it's a sort of seasonal anxiety. Everything calms down immediately after the new year, but October through December is hard for me.
Ummm well… We go to the casino for Halloween. We go to the casino for Thanksgiving. We go to the casino for Christmas. We go to the casino for birthdays. We go to the casino for New Years Eve. We go to the casino for Valentines day. We go to the casino for Easter. We go to the casino for Memorial Day. We go to the casino for 4th of July. We go to the casino for Labor day. Lol so im good with any holiday 🤣
I used to really like Halloween, but especially the last few years, I only see it as a holiday for kids, and since I don't have any, then any effort I put into it is entirely for neighbors who do. So, don't really care.
Thanksgiving is basically a time where the family and extended family get together for a home-cooked lunch and dinner. That's about it.
Christmas carries a lot more meaning for me, so I guess it wins by default even though it never really "excites" me.
Christmas... Christmas means winter and it's very close with New Years, the food is way better and better than that, it's when most of my friends travel and come back... so I get to see them again and in person
I like Thanksgiving. No real pressure to buy gifts. We don't deal with relatives. The best meal of the year and top it off with a piece of chocolate cake.
We don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Denmark (for obvious reasons). Halloween has been imported from the US but still feels weird and foreign. Christmas, however, is a deeply rooted tradition that I've celebrated all my life, easy choice.
Christmas. I get to celebrate the birth of my Saviour (even though Christ was likely actually born in spring) and cover a tree in lights and tinsel while trying to explain Father Christmas to my son
I read some comments here. I look forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas equally. I can't help what they stand for or were started but it's a chance for me and some of my family to get to spend time together.
Christmas as not only do I love the snow and will be able to buy a gun (I live in illinois where the age to own a gun is 21 :/) but my birthday is on the 25th. I also love helping my parents put up a tree in the living room.
Christmas big time. This year will be the biggest celebration in the history of mankind, as people gather and send a big "fuck you" to Fauci and his fear mongering horde who have no problem with large gatherings of their own, but are trying to separate us normal human families as much as they can with their bs. Gonna be a party like no other as everyone comes together, and the scared sheep of the left stay home, so they won't be there to put a damper on everyone's holiday spirit.
Halloween! I don't know why people are obbssed by a commercial created holiday, named Christmas. Christmas seems to be al about buying "things". Which it should be about spending time with family. More like spendmas.
Well Halloween is a great excuse to party with friends. Christmas is more of a family thing. Halloween you do not have to buy gifts. Christmas makes it seem like You have to buy gifts.
I'm an agnostic Jew. I don't celebrate Christmas and I have stopped celebrating Halloween. It's a shame that we celebrate Thanksgiving knowing what it actually represents (it's not about family, it's about what happened to the natives)
