Christmas

Twas the day of Christmas.
And all was still in the house.

It is amazing, really, how Christmas has been played up to possess such a magical quality. A season of hope, giving, love, joy and peace. Strange how this day is often described as a season. Is it anything special to receive a gift on this day? No, for it is expected. As analysts suggest about the first major scientific revolution, science has attempted to explain all the phenomena in this world so that no longer is there any room for creativity or imagination. What makes an event special is its randomness. It is the gift that is entirely unexpected that lets people know that truly, you were thinking of them.

So why only on Christmas do we send gifts? What makes Christmas special over all other days?
