No need to feel bad when it ends, because a new year is coming, praying that we all will see the New Year.

I totally get what the OP is saying. This time of year people are nicer, more friendly, and more helpful and seem to care more about others.  There is just a feel in the air.  Yes, I guess if you have no family it would be depressing.  And when family dies and are no longer here it is different and kind of sad. But no need to be a gloom and be all down on people who want to celebrate the holiday.  I think even if I were alone I would still put up a tree and I would do things myself to make it special for me. 

Christmas is not what it use to be for me either.  As you get older things change. People die.  But that is no reason to be hateful to everyone else screaming I will be glad when it is over.

I use to work in retail (part time 2nd job) and a woman came thru and bought about 12 of the $1 deodorant for women and was fussing about having to buy presents for everybody.  She bought a similar item for men.  She literally throws the items at me and slams stuff on the counter telling me how they can be happy with it or throw it in the trash she really doesn't care.  I can still see that in my head so clearly.  That was probably 15 years ago.  My reaction today would be a lot different. lol.  I would probably give her an ear full.

If you don't want to celebrate Christmas then don't.  But don't be a gloom on everybody else.  Don't fuss and complain because you hate the holidays.  I like this time of year and yes, it is kind of sad when it is all over.  You wait, you plan, excitement builds, and in just a few hours it is all over.

Kinda reminds me of 2 songs

Whats it all about Alfie

And the last verse to a song Barry McGuire did in 1965 called "Eve of destruction"

Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around to Selma Alabama
You may leave here for 4 days in space
But when you return its the same ol place
The pounding of the drums,the pride and disgrace
You can bury your dead,but dont leave a trace
Hate your next door neighbor,but dont forget to say grace

The meaning of Christmas is not gone. It is up to you as to what Christmas means to you and your household.
I don't care what other people do or what they think Christmas means. It doesn't change what it means to me.

:menorah:   :santa:   :snowflake:  I find joy every year. The holidays seem to go so fast, only would be nice if Christmas time lasted longer than it does. Making the goody treats can last for the entire year though. :menorah:   :santa:   :snowflake:

I will be very happy when holidays end.  I do not celebrate them any more.

I think that it was a lot of people feel when a holiday ends. You invest X hours preparing for a 24-hour event. And then when that event is over (at least for me), I feel a sense of sadness.

I feel bad even before it starts,,,,   Holidays have been real hard the past few years..  not money wise just health wise.  Hope one day it will be better.
