{What do you love most about Christmas?}

"I love that it is representative of hope and an opportunity for forgiveness. All the lights and songs and everyone coming together confirms that hope." —Galatianssixfive

"I love getting together with family and friends, because its an enriching environment." —earlofgreytea

"I love the fact that we finally are at peace. My family's very united, yet they fight every time they can and I often have to divide myself between my mother's family and my father's one, just like I'm a different person into the different contexts. But at Christmas I can be myself and both our families are together, and we enjoy our time without fighting or yelling at one another — although my grandfather and uncle often fight anyway, usually because they get drunk😂" —kura_skymning

"I love spending time with my family because my family is my everything." —Jaaswag

"I just love the feeling of Christmas and the way it brings me closer to the people I love. I love seeing strangers on the street all bundled up and smile-y. My friends and I spend so much fun time together and we laugh and always have a great time. When we do the Nutcracker I feel so connected with all of them and I have new appreciations for their smiles and laughs. I love doing the traditions with my family and laughing with them and feeling all warm and loved during Christmas. The feeling of Christmas is absolutely magical." —QuestWing

"Having my family around me, it's nice to sit down for a minute and spend time with your loved ones!" —rebeccadunlap503

"The best part of Christmas has to be the spirit. Everything in life just seems ten million times better during this season because it is the one time of the year where people set aside differences and come together. It is a time filled with fellowship and family, warmth and light, hope and renewal. I think that's what I love most—Christmas has this incredible effect on people that causes all to unite and share joy." —@GracelynCate

"What I love most about Christmas is how everyone comes together. I love it when people can put aside their differences and celebrate together!" —AnjealouscaSchuyler

"Christmas has always held a special place in my heart and life. but i have to say that my all time favorite thing about Christmas would be the amount of service and giving it brings. i love driving around and looking at everyone's warm smiles and the skip in they're steps. when i see someone do something nice it always brings a smile to my face. this is something that not all holidays bring. Christmas is a very special holiday." —SparrowDog13
