HOW CHRISTMAS MUST BE CELEBRATED

 In this essay I am explaining how Christmas should be celebrated , this topic is connected to the essay before , because of the general topic that is Christmas. But in this one I am going to share my point of view and what I think is the point of view of other people on how Christmas should be celebrated , either in a religious way or a social way.

As stated in the essay before , Christmas is a annual commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ , that is observed most commonly the 25th of December. For many people Christmas starts from the 24th or 25th until New Years ,  for me is not that way , I personally think that Christmas is a full month , that starts from the 30th of November to the 31st of December and for some other people it ends in January. I think that Christmas does not have a exact way of being celebrated , because for everyone Christmas is not the same , there are people that think that Christmas has to be solemnly religious , for others is just a social celebration , for others is a mixture of both and some do not even celebrated because they simply do not believe in it. For those people that celebrate Christmas in just a religious way , they stick to the traditional christmas days , they accomplish the advent period correctly by actually doing it , they only celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and nothing else , they may do the 24th feast but without any gifts to share , just them honoring the birth of Jesus Christ , and going to church .  For the one that think that Christmas is just a time to celebrate , they simply leave religion aside and bring the party , drinks and gatherings up front , that sometimes they do not even care that we are celebrating the birth of Jesus that they jump straight to the carnival season , that comes in February  . For the ones that do a mixture of them both , they accomplish the traditional religious process of Christmas , and pray in church , but they twist it all adding new ideas to make a even better Christmas , like doing novenas , singing Christmas carols , doing small gatherings with families to remember of the great year that has gone bye , and the 24th they do the big feast with all the family , just enjoying each other presence laughing , listing to music and eating. For does how do not share the same religion they have their own tradition that may be similar to Christmas , and for the people that simply do not believe is another normal month , where they can do whatever they want and party. 
I think that one of the most important factors is how at the end we all are more united because , those special gatherings and new traditions , even decorating a house bring all of us together.

At the end of the day it does not matter how you celebrated Christmas , the important thing about this month , aside the birth of Jesus , is how families reunite and have a great time together , they catch up , they travel , they share the memories of things that had happen to them , and all with joy and love. In my personal opinion , I think that there is nothing wrong finding a balance between religious and social way of celebrating Christmas, In my house we celebrate Christmas combining those two factor , and we all have a very great time fill with joy and love.
