Not buying Christmas

Big happy family gathered around a table with way too much food on it is just an image used by lots, lots of companies, in order to sell you their products. If your family is so dysfunctional and broken in such an immense degree that you decided you’re not gonna spend this Christmas with your toxic family members but rather alone, then you’re no longer a part of their target group, because you won’t be buying any presents, you’re not gonna be buying 10 times more food than you could possibly eat. You feel sad because you think everybody else, all the normal people, are spending Christmas with their loved ones and you are just here with no one but yourself, you feel like you’re left out from the rest of the world. But hey, don’t let them fool you. You’re only left out from the supermarkets’ holiday income.

There are people who will be with the families they love for Christmas, there are people who will be with the families they hate, there are people who will be working during Christmas, there are people who will be with their friends, there are people who will be dying somewhere this Christmas, there are people who will be giving birth, and then there are you, even if totally alone, you will be somewhere and it will be Christmas, once again. Don’t let them make you believe that there is only one way how it’s supposed to be, don’t let them sell you their Christmas image.
