Happiness in the Holiday Season

Something that makes me really happy is holiday season. As many people have heard me say recently, I am really excited for Thanksgiving. Many people say it’s because I love to eat and I can only think about my next meal. While a lot of this is true, these aren’t the only reasons I love Thanksgiving. 

One major reason I really love Thanksgiving is because it marks the start of the holiday season. I am not a big fan of Halloween and don’t understand why people get excited for it but when it’s time for the holiday season, I just feel a certain feeling in the air. Many people will start to decorate their houses for Christmas. I really enjoy looking at the lights and Christmas trees outside. I feel that they add a festive spirit to everyday life that makes it that more enjoyable. This is also a time where people come together with friends and family which always makes the time happier because you are able to see people you do not see often. 

Another thing that makes me really happy is the media around this season. Holiday music, especially Christmas music makes me happy and invokes a certain emotion. I feel like this music embodies a feeling that is special and unique. This feeling conveys a mood for the season that sparks a certain emotion that makes you feel festive and want to celebrate. I also like to watch a lot of Christmas movies during this time in blankets and with a big spread of snacks. Even though everyone has seen these old Christmas movies, they’re still enjoyable.

I also love to go shopping during this time, especially on Black Friday. I love how it’s especially busy with everyone trying to get deals on things for a long time. I usually go with my friends and family and we have a lot of fun, even though many of them are female and mainly buy clothes. I also love giving gifts, the idea of giving and receiving gifts during this season is enjoyable for me, so I will buy a lot of things to giveaway to people.
