Quotes to ponder:
"The gifts we give don’t matter as much as the time we spend."
"Most gifts are not fulfilling. Giving and getting tons of presents does not make me feel happy, or fulfilled, or joyful, or… Christmas-like."
"All my best holiday memories involve TIME with family and friends. They revolve around MEMORIES, not stuff."
