If you aren't going anywhere for Christmas, consider unplugging for a day.
Finally sit down with that book you've wanted to read, start writing down that stuff in your head that doesn't want to leave you etc.
You don't even need to reflect on your life, just take a breather.

"According to all known laws of computing, there is no way that #Emacs should be able to edit. Its bytecode engine is just too old to get those fat buffers off the ground. Emacs, of course, edits anyway, because Emacs doesn't care what humans think is impossible."

Soon this christmas thing, where ppl give each other presents starts.

If you don't have a particular need to resieve a present, you could ask those wanting to make you a gift, to rather share with someone having a particular need.
Could be done through supporting a social organisation or gifting directly to a person in need.

When I got to the window, I told the comrade working there thank you for all of his hard work, and that it doesn’t go appreciated, and that it must be difficult particularly during this season. He told me he had been there since 6:00 AM and there were 4 workers there all day— 2 working the front windows and 2 who have been sorting packages and assembling extra shelves because of how many they have right now because of holiday orders.
