Hello, Christmas Comfort family!
Have you ever found yourself humming along to “Jingle Bells” or “Silent Night” in the middle of a sweltering July afternoon, only to be met with puzzled looks or the inevitable question: “Why are you listening to Christmas music in July? It’s too early!” If you’ve been there, you’re not alone. Last night I was charting to Christmas music when a coworker did this to me ! I just thought to myself what is so wrong with doing what makes me happy and why do people feel the need to guilt me ? Today, let’s dive into why we should unapologetically embrace the things that make us happy, no matter the season.
The Magic of Christmas Music
Christmas music has a special kind of magic. It’s a comforting reminder of joyful moments, family gatherings, and the spirit of giving. For many of us, these melodies evoke a sense of warmth and nostalgia that transcends the calendar. They can nelp us manage stress and provide an escape from daily pressures. Why should we limit that feeling to just a few weeks at the end of the year? If listening to “O Holy Night” in the middle of summer brings a smile to your face and a twinkle to your eye, then let the music play!
Joy Knows No Season
Happiness isn’t bound by dates or seasons. Whether it’s Christmas music, decorating your home, or even wearing that favorite Christmas sweater, doing what makes you happy is essential for your well-being. Life is too short to conform to societal expectations of when it’s “appropriate” to enjoy certain things. Your happiness is your own, and it should be celebrated all year round.
Let’s Drop the Guilt
When someone questions your love for Christmas in July, remember that their curiosity doesn’t have to dampen your joy. It’s easy to feel self-conscious or guilty when others don’t share your enthusiasm, but here’s the truth: everyone finds joy in different ways. By staying true to what makes you happy, you might even inspire others to embrace their own unique passions without fear of judgment.
Celebrate Individuality
Each of us has our own traditions, quirks, and sources of happiness. By celebrating these differences, we create a more inclusive and understanding world. The next time you hear a comment about your Christmas playlist in the summer, respond with a smile and an invitation to join in the fun. Who knows? You might just convert someone into a year-round Christmas fan!
Spread the Cheer
At Christmas Comfort 365, we believe in the power of spreading joy and comfort every single day. So, dust off those holiday records, string up some fairy lights, and let the spirit of Christmas fill your heart whenever you need it. Life’s too short to wait for December.
Remember, it’s never too early—or too late—to celebrate what makes you happy.
Warm wishes, CC365
