Many people in mylot is talking about Christmas gift, and was really excited about Christmas. Christmas is identically giving a gift, and almost all over the people of this world is like to give another a gift when Christmas coming.
But did you think A Chrismast gift is a must when you visit your relatives? Yaaa some times it doesn't feel good when we are visiting our relatives without bringing a gift when Christmas, so is this making a gift as a necessary things to us?
I hope Christmas is not giving a gift idea only, but Christmas is brings a joy for all of us
What your opinion? How if you are visiting your relatives?What will you do? 
Keep Christmas spirit within you, cheers

Hey maxi! How are you? It's been awhile since I've seen you
around here! Great to see you again! Christmas is not supposed
to be about just giving gifts! It's supposed to be about love
and joy and spending precious time with those that we love!
That is the most important part of Christmas! Being with those
that you truly care about! Gifts are just things, being with
family and friends are what really counts! Have a wonderful
Christmas! Hugs, Opal

Hi Opal! 
Yaa, i'm pretty busy lately, great to see you to! Uh -huh, you are right, Christmas is about love and joy, but i'm wondering when we are visiting, for examples you, if you are visiting your nephew and nieces, did you bring something for them or else?

while I give gifts during Christmas,I give gifts to significant people only.I don't try staying on somebody else's good side, even if we're not really friends,by giving them gifts.I would rather spend money on people who I really care for.I don't want to commercialize my gift giving.

Hi coco!
Giving a gift to special one, or significant people is good, that's why people who receive a gift would be very happy when receiving it, as they feel they are really important people for you

Actually christmas mainly focuses on sharing..It means to be sharing the love, joy and peace..But soon it was commercialised and the meaning of cristmas was changed..The main focus went on to the gifts...It was all taken as exchange of gifts..The real spirit of christmas was forgotten..It is not a must to give gifts on christmas day..But giving gifts just add to the happiness of christmas.

Offhh you're right, nowadays it's been commercialised, it shouldn't but i don't know exactly what starting it, is it a lot of people who looking a gift or it's just a marketing technique from the store ...
However, we shouldn't forget the spirit of Christmas

I personally believe that giving and receiving Christmas gift is not really a requirement in order to celebrate Christmas but somehow, it feels so good to be able to receive a present from someone because it means that the person remembers you. Aside from that, giving gifts to other people is also an honor for me. It feels great to be of great help to people who are in need. I feel truly glad to see happy faces of people who received my gift. The cost doesn't really matter. What is important is that it was given from the heart.
