I don't know how many articles I've seen during the last week with titles like "How to change your Christmas gifts - know your rights in the stores!" or "Christmas looser. Write and tell us about your worst gift!". It is shockingly depressing that the hysteria of Christmas has to be twisted even more by this kind of features. I mean come on! What happened to it is the thought behind it that matters? I know that there are so many families that are forced to make Christmas the peak of consuming to please their spoilt kids. And the spoiltness is not only the parents fault, even if they have a big part of it of course, but it is also the way our society is built up at the moment. But just because this is the way the world looks doesn't make it suck any less. I glad that my Christmas was relaxed, without the hysteria in any way. With some gifts that brought only joy. And still what made me most happy was the gift I didn't get, it was the thought of a gift from the person that I had not decided with whether or not to get one. That really made me smile. But sure, I'm a material girl in a material world so I also love my new silk cover.
