Children Quote by YourMaj3sty
“The more money you spend on X-Mas gifts, doesn't mean more love. Don't use the excuse, 'you want to give people the things you didn't have growing up'. Rather, give the things you DID have instead. Most of u people don't even know what Christmas means, where it originated, or the origin of Santa Claus. These hellidays are materialistic shadows of their former selves. Giving is good, but when you have to spend obscene amounts of money to please someone, what price does that place on love?”
