Default Do you hate X-Mas as much as I do?

I hate this time of year. Everybody who doesn't deserve a dman thing always gets more and those who are in need go without. Case in point, Me and my wife are going to buy a girl who I work with kids some gifts. She's got 4 kids and her man is long gone. She ask me the other day at work how much our bonus is going to be so she can pay the rent. I almost cry when she says this to me. So do me a favor and help someone out in need this X-Mas no Matter how little it may be it'll make someone else's day brighter. Thanks and Merry X-Mas.

you aren't alone.

xmas isn't about the gifts you give or get. it's all about family.

so there is every reason to hate it.

If this was true at all I'd like it a whole lot more. I just hate to hear people struggling in life when we all can do just a little to make a big differance in someone's life. I mean $200 bucks worth of gift isn't going to change someone's life but if your a parent with kid's under the age of 15 and get no X-Mas gifts from Santa I feel for them.
