In no particular order, here's what I believe are the best things of Christmas:
1. Jesus! Duh.
Who doesn’t love a time set apart to celebrate the greatest person ever? Christmas is a great time to focus on others and especially the One who truly matters. Don’t forget to do that this Christmas.
2. Cookies, Chocolate, and Treats
Everyone makes treats and if you make ‘em you have to eat ‘em right? Enjoy it while it lasts, you can work out as a New Years Resolution.
3. Giving/Getting Gifts
Getting gifts is great, but most people under estimate giving gifts. I truly think it is the better of the two. Thoughtfully buying a gift for someone you care about brings so much joy.
4. Everything can revolve around Christmas and its okay!
Christmas music, Christmas clothes, Christmas decorations, Christmas food, Christmas presents, Christmas church services, Christmas parties, the list is endless!
5. A long break from school, homework, work, and all the mandatory things.
If you’re a college student, this is probably your favorite part. Nothing says Christmas quite like a month-long break with minimal to no school work.
