What makes you feel joy or feel better during this Holiday Season?

This is a depressing time for some people as feelings can get triggered by this season. There is sometimes disappointment at not having a picture perfect holiday, or at not having the things like family, friends, etc. that one might wish but there is plenty in this holiday season to bring joy as well. What things bring joy to you this holiday season? I find that sometimes television programs about the holiday season bring joy. There are some that are even on over the air television here in the States. And plenty of things to see on YouTube.com that help out too. And I must admit that I found some joy today when I typed in Let it snow on the Google search engine and it snowed... And then typed in Merry Christmas and saw something happen and Happy Hanukkah and saw something else happen... Spending time with family can be good... or just spending time with friends even if they are not the Special friend or Honey that one wanted to be able to spend with. Attending religious services is sometimes good for the mood as is meditation and prayer in the home. And of course spending time outside exercising or getting one's exercise in the shopping mall purchasing easily affordable gifts is also not a bad thing for javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$cphMainContent$lbStart','')the mood. What do you do to feel better during this holiday season?
