Christmas is for the kids?

Unbelievable. It's getting harder and harder to "feel Christmas" every year. It's only about a week away and yet, the feeling these days is just like any other ordinary day. Sure there are decorations everywhere and Christmas songs being played over the radio stations, and inside malls. You buy gifts to give, and make wishlists of gifts you want to get (hoping to get them is part of the fun, I guess). Christmas is certainly commercialized but I don't think that's what took the fun out of it. Real life is catching up on the occasion. Christmas season or not, we still have to worry about the adult stuff.

Nonetheless, we should make it easier for others to forget about it, even for a while.

i know what you mean. it seems that you just realize how close it is and afterwards you may wish that you had been more attentive to it.
