As I travel and get older I notice X-mas is simmering down. What do you see is most important during this holiday season?

Some people need to seriously unknot their panties before they give themselves a hernia.
Family is the most important to me, by far.

Well this can be controversial because some think the "X" is replacing Christ... but the word "Christ" and its compounds, including "Christmas", have been abbreviated for at least the past 1,000 years, long before the modern "Xmas" was commonly used.
This abbreviation is widely but not universally accepted; some view it as demeaning to Christ, whilst others find it a helpful abbreviation.
I my self don't say or write X-Mas, i perfer Christmas.

I noticed your preference to describe "X-Mas" to "Christmas". Are you an Atheist or Anti-Christ?
X-Mas was coined as insult to Christians by replacing with "X" the word "Christ", which in the first place is to commemorate the birth of Christ.

CHRISTMAS begins with CHRIST, JESUS is the reason for the season. JESUS the CHRIST.
X - to me is a disgrace to CHRIST. and christians must not subtitute x for CHRIST.
May you have a very MERRY CHRISTmas and
a blessed new year.
