Cheer up! Christmas coming! by Ludmila Martinicka

Not to everybody brings Christmas time joy and happiness. This holiday can put you also in a deep depression. When you don't find your Christmas spirit enthusiastic enough, when presents you prepared for your friends and family relatives seems not be good enough, when there is not enough snow around, when there is no Christmas tree in the house just green branches, when... Sometimes it is enough to watch not very happily directed Christmas fairy tale and your Christmas spirit is death. Media has strong influence on the human mind. On the first look innocent fairy tale can hide motives of aggression, hate, cruel behavior. For adult spectator it doesn't create a big problem. He has his own mind formed. The mind of a child can't differentiate what is good, what is bad, what is real and what fiction. You should set the program of your Christmas properly before. May be some family activities, finally you have time to spend together as a family. Make some sport, go for a walk, enjoy the Christmas atmosphere. It would be better than looking at the TV screen. Some parts of TV program is not for those, which are delighted about Christmas. It is designed as a balm for those who feel sad in the Christmas season. Don't forget about other cheering up winter activities. You can organize a snowball fight, build a snowmen, or, if you are an artistic person, build a dinosaur or whatever else what comes to your mind at the Christmas time. Merry Christmas!
