Glittering ornaments everywhere around me, slushy gifts, mongers on each corners, better and better bids. And all of this can be seen in the middle of November. These features mean Christmas nowadays. I walk through the town and I feel the wind of Christmas grab me, but I try to resist it.
When I go to the biggest shopping centre of the city, I come face to face with at least 5 different kind of Santa Claus. One of them looks like a fireman climbing up and down on a wire, the other is a dancing Santa Claus, but I saw a singing one, a sitting one and so on. The enumeration is endless.
I see people coming out from shops with huge presents. Today, expensive and luxorious presents signify the feast of love. Christmas becomes the celebration of money-spending and shopping and it will be worse and worse during the years. Because when I was smaller, I was very glad to get a little present. And now, children compete each other who got the biggest gift. Unfortunately, people expect bigger and bigger presents every year and the dealers use it.And there's another problem, people don't want to give it up even if they don't have money. Instead, they ask for loan.
I think, we should think it over. Because I can love somebody without giving him or her all of my money wrapped in beautiful packing. Slowly, this festivity become our big celebration of our money.
