Abstract
- The author reflects on the psychological aspects of gift-giving and the holiday season. He argues that the Christmas season brings anxiety to people due to the things being done during such time. However, he adds that Christmas may also overcome anxiety through the gifts or rewards one receives. The author also ponders on the concept of giving gifts.
