My dad's a firefighter, so I know what it's like for policemen and firefighters to be on their own on Christmas Day.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love being home at Christmastime.
What firefighters and people in our military and cops do is separate from what the rest of us do; basically these people say, 'I'm going to protect all these strangers.'
One thing that's great about firefighters: If they don't have the equipment they desperately need, they don't have the help, they don't care. They'll do it on their own.
A lovely thing about Christmas is that it's compulsory, like a thunderstorm, and we all go through it together.
Christmas is a huge thing in my family. We usually start decorating the day after Thanksgiving. We spend Christmas Eve with one set of grandparents, and Christmas Day with the other grandparents and our family.
Christmas is doing a little something extra for someone.
Firefighters are some of the most selfless public servants you will ever encounter.
Pfft, I hate Christmas Day. It's for children and families. Not for people like me.
My family always makes a huge deal out of Christmas.
Like my dad, I have a Christmas party most years. I like to celebrate and see as many people as possible.
