What is Xmas
Christmas is an annual commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ and is celebrated every year on Decemeber 25. It was a religion and a cutural holiday that now in the 20 century is just all about the money and gifts you receive on that day. It seems like people forgot the true meaning of xmas and doesn’t care anymore but I don’t complain about it anymore because it look like this socitey doesn’t care about anything in the world unless it is given towords them. But The practice of putting up special decorations at Christmas has a long history. In the 15th century, it was recorded that in London it was the custom at Christmas for every house and all the parish churches to be "decked with holm, ivy, bays, and whatsoever the season of the year afforded to be green. The heart-shaped leaves of ivy were said to symbolize the coming to earth of Jesus, while holly was seen as protection against pagans and witches, its thorns and red berries held to represent the Crown of Thorns worn by Jesus at the crucifixion and the blood he shed. The existion of santa clause and his story timeia still alive for some reason parents would like their children to still believe in him. But I think Xmas is the biggest economics holiday and always will because billions of people every year buy tons of expensive material and electronics on that holiday so to me xmas is a big failure year hoilday that’s making the world worst with money.
