3 Ways to Make Your Christmas Special

Want to make Christmas special?
Ah, the holidays, they are a mixture of fun, food and a plenitude of stress.  We feel so much pressure to make everything just right.  It is maddening at times.
We want to make things special because Christmas itself is distinctive.  Christmas is packed with meaning.  All the more reason that we want to make it stand out.  The memories should last a lifetime or at least until New Year's.

3 Quick Tips to Make Your Christmas Special

I know you're busy so I'll get right to the point and make this brief.  There are still presents to wrap, songs to carol and hams to bake.  So, in the midst of all this, how do you make Christmas special?  Well, here are some things to consider:

1.  Start by Letting Some Things Go

You can squeeze the specialness right out of Christmas trying to pack it too full of good things.  We are reminded that Christmas is a time that we are supposed to be spending with family and friends, accentuating the important things in life.  Remember, good can be the enemy of great.  If you try to cram too much good stuff in, then you may very well crush the greatness right out of it.  This is true not only for you, but for everyone else around you as well.  Let some things go and you'll have a much more momentous season.

2.  Be Generous to Someone Outside Your Circle

I know we buy tons of gifts for close friends and family members at Christmas.  In fact, I think we often overdo Christmas gift giving, but I'll save that for another article.  A powerful way that you can make your Christmas special is by giving generously to someone outside your immediate circle.  You might be like Evan in How to Help a Homeless Friend? that knows someone that is down on their luck and needing a little extra generosity this year.  Giving to someone that really needs it will warm your heart and give you that special feeling inside.  This is what Christmas is really all about anyway, isn't it?
