Any holiday can be stressful and a lot of work to celebrate, but its worth it to spend time with family. Some holidays are pointless to celebrate, but are still fun too. I think we all need to know the true meaning of some holidays because its important to know. Christmas and Easter are both religious holidays and thanksgiving is when the pilgrims came. Christmas is about Jesus's birthday and not a fat santa giving children gifts. He was born and was giving gifts to celebrate the birth of the messiah. Thats why we still give and receive gifts today. Easter is when Jesus rose from the grave/dead and went to heaven and died for our sins.
It can be fun to dress up for Halloween, eat at Thanksgiving, give and receive gifts during Christmas, and tell that special someone you love them at Valentines day, but the holidays are about sharing that fun time with your family and friends and knowing the true value of them.
I think that the best time of the holidays are the day after sales. I always love to get to the stores at midnight and wait until they open to get the things I've been wanting the whole season for half off. It feels great to know you can get a great deal on a great item. I usually end up with a bunch of spa stuff or chocolate or swiss miss. Although it is tiring to do all of that shopping, I love spending time with my mom and other family when doing so.
