As we are nearing Christmas, the mad rush begins to buy presents for our family and friends and for anyone and everyone that we can think of. I have ended buying gifts for people, not because I wanted to, but because I was afraid to offend them, or out of obligation as I knew that they would be shopping for me, possibly also out of obligation as they thought I would be giving them a gift.
Shopping Centres become increasingly hectic as we try to find the perfect gifts to give people that have everything.
After Christmas, we are blessed/burdened with more things to clutter our already cluttered lives, homes... Not all presents are so frivolous, but in general... you get the idea.
I was sent a link to this website by a friend of mine and I think it is worth visiting, watching the short video and perhaps being open to celebrating Christmas a little differently this year.
