I’m going to my sister’s house tomorrow. It should be nice, as far as the food and seeing my sister and her family.
I’m not expecting any gifts, considering I never buy any for them; I’m always flat broke, I hate it, makes me feel like an ass, but oh well. I’m fine with no gifts, considering this.
Xmas is just another day; hell, I always call it “Xmas,” can’t even bring myself to type out the full name, considering I don’t believe in the very notion of a christ. Whatever. If I can’t celebrate the religious aspect of a religious holiday then I find it hard to celebrate the commercialism.
It doesn’t matter, I ■■■■■■■ hate the notion of a “Xmas season;” it’s supposed to be just one goddam day.
It’s okay to not celebrate the holidays at all, it’s optional. It’s undersrandable to not want to take part bc of financial reasons, you can still enjoy the holiday anyway. It’s not so terrible
I don’t celebrate Xmas at all. However, i still call other people in my family to wish them a happy Xmas because they all still celebrate it. Not the religious aspect, everyone in my family are atheists - my family celebrates it as a social gathering or get together. Time to spend with family.

It sounds like your sister and her family are very important to you! That’s wonderful you can see them! I’m sorry it’s an unpleasant season for you.
I want you to know you are not “just a downer”. You are not “just a” anything. Its important to us how you feel, what you value, and what you think about things. You matter. Your opinions matter. What you are going through matters.
