Then make Christmas happen for someone else - that is the spirit........Go find an angel tree and get some gifts for children who may not get any........believe me - it works!!!

Try opening your eyes to Jesus Birthday-- That is the real reason for the Christmas season, and it never loses its' luster!!! I personally would rather celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, because he will never get old to me! It is a wonderful time to celebrate Jesus' birth on his birthday! There is no better way to put magic in Christmas !

Make Christmas magical for someone else...
Try finding someone who won't have a Christmas, or be a part of an outreach organization. Give the gift of hope to someone in need, and you will receive the greatest give of all.

Get into the real spirit of Christmas, go volunteer at a soup kitchen. I go to the RSPCA & my local wildlife rehab centre & spend time with the animals because no one goes there then.
I'd also do something like a scavenger hunt for something a little fun & different. Make clues & stuff that leads little presents to something really cool & meaningful

i'm 19... its nevertheless there for me. My mothers and fathers, extremely my mom, has continually positioned extra effective attempt into making Christmas particular with decorations and in simple terms spending time mutually as a kin. i think of that's what makes Christmas so particular to me... i've got not got any commitments (college, etc) and in simple terms get to gather around the front room and watch movies with my kin via the hearth. i think of Christmas will lose its magic as quickly as i'm no longer spending Christmas at my mothers and fathers' living house anymore. yet I additionally think of it is going to return when I actual have little ones.

Well, for one thing, Christmas also celebrates the birth of Jesus. One thing we have started doing is baking a birthday cake and having a birthday party for Jesus. We give gifts in honor of Jesus' birthday... This might be something that you could think about. Have everyone make one gift that they give be in honor of Jesus' birthday and read the story from the Bible. It is really neat.
Also playing Chrismas music...and watching the old Christmas shows puts you in the Christmas spirit....young or old, everyone likes to watch the cartoons and the old movies. Live it up.....Its a celebration!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

simple...boil newts, squid eyes, hair from a dog and cat claws into a giant cauldron. Do this at EXACTLY midnight on Christmas eve. That should bring some magic back to the holidays. Either that or get a significant other to spend the holidays.

go to a place where there are sick children hand out sweets ,or perhaps fruit would be better
read kids a christmass story
xmass is about children more than anything else and getting together with loved ones and remembering christs birth ;
its the universal bith day when mankind was born into the flesh
just as easter is the universal day that reminds us we will all be born again ; into spirit.

Good golly Miss Molly! You're not the only one, so you're by far not alone here. It lost its magic for me a long time ago. I would like to renew it myself, but I really don't know how. I'll tell you what, if I do find a way to renew my spirit for the holiday, then I'll be sure to let you know.
