I noticed every single question in this section is about gifts. Is there anything else to this holiday or is gifts pretty much it? Would you even celebrate Christmas if it wasn’t for the gifts?
Honestly, no. Basically, Christmas isn’t just about the presents. Though, I wouldn’t celebrate it without presents. That’s my opinion!

Of course I would. I celebrate everyday and there are no gifts. Besides, Christmas isn’t about the gifts, it’s about the coming of Jesus, our eternal savior.
But, my parents actually might not include presents this year because of the economy, and we might just get presents for the poor.

Well, as a young person, I would definetly still. I love waking up and thinking that it’s pure family time. Although I do love the gifts. What my family does is we buy gifts, and make a lot of homemade ones too. So, yeah, I think i still for sure would

Yes I would. I think most people forget what the real meaning of Christmas is ( if your religious ) sometimes, i, myself forget and get overwhelmed with all the gifts. But keep it in the back of your mind that, yes you get gifts, and spend time with friends and family, but Christmas is really about the birth of Jesus.

absolutely, plus we have a tradition of making ornaments and cookies together.
It is about spending time with family, enjoying the beautiful decorations, and the spirit itself.

Materialisation has ruined Christmas. It was never about gifts.

I sure would. It’s not about the gifts, I mean yeah, they’re nice to have but the world wouldn’t stop spinning if I didn’t get any for Christmas, as long as I could still be with my family then I would be just fine.

Of course!!!! In my eye its not just Christmas but the entire month and spirit. Everyone is so happy and there are so many decorations I love it! The gifts are not the main part even though they are fun.

Yes ….i will…..Though i love to present gifts on that day but even if i am unable to purchase gifts for my loved ones, i’ll celebrate this festival. I believe that Christmas is not all about giving and taking gifts. Hey….i have a better option this year. If you are running lack of money, Candles make great holiday gifts for Christmas. They gives you more than Candle Light and enhance any room and make a wonderful gift. Designed with both religious and secular Christmas themes, these candles twinkle as keepsakes of family tradition or as gifts to loved ones. Hand-poured by skilled artisans using a quality blend of waxes and rich oils, when they lit, these beautiful candles spread a nice, steady flame.
