 Waiting for Christmas is a special time when you really want to believe in a miracle. It's good if a snowball crunches under your feet, your cheeks are rosy from the frost, garlands illuminate everything around and joy overwhelms. But if there is no mood, you don't want a holiday and you can't believe in a miracle, then you urgently need to create a mood for yourself! You can arrange a marathon of festive movies and cartoons.
