Comedian Jess Hilarious recently shared a refreshing perspective on the Christmas holiday, urging her fans to put their well-being first amidst the season’s pressures.
While the holiday season is often seen as a joyous time filled with celebrations and gift-giving, it can also lead to stress and anxiety for many. Recognizing this, Jess took to social media to deliver a heartfelt message, encouraging her followers to let go of the stress that comes with trying to keep up during Christmas.
In her candid post, she spoke directly to those who might not be feeling the festive spirit this year. Acknowledging the financial pressures and societal expectations that can make the season feel overwhelming, she reminded her fans that it’s okay to not have everything figured out. “I’m rumbling, telling you all of this because I know a lot of people really don’t have it this year,” she said, emphasizing that there’s no need to feel guilty for not being able to provide all the traditional holiday trappings.
Jess emphasized the importance of shifting one’s perspective during this time. “If you don’t have it this year, F that. It’s alright,” she offered. “This isn’t going to be the last Christmas you have. Don’t beat yourself up or feel crazy about it.”
She also shared some practical tips for staying grounded during the hustle and bustle of the holidays. One key piece of advice was to take a break from social media to avoid the temptation to compare oneself to others. “Don’t worry about what everybody else has going on because that’s how people get lost as well,” she cautioned. “Christmas is just another day. Don’t get too hung up on it. Before you know it, it’s gone. It’s going to be a new year, and then what? Bills, rent, and taxes are due. You know what? Use some of that time to pay a bill this Christmas instead of stressing about the hottest toys for the kids. Take some time to kick back, relax, and watch TV with your loved ones. Just turn off your phone.”
Jess’s relatable and down-to-earth message has struck a chord with many, prompting appreciative responses from her followers. One fan commented, “Amen. The holiday is about togetherness, not what’s under the tree,” another expressed gratitude, saying, “It’s THIS! Thankful for life & thankful to God.” Someone else added, “It’s definitely not the end of the world; the biggest blessing is making it from January to December. Plus, these kids get stuff all year long!”
Her heartfelt words serve as a reminder that the essence of the holidays lies in connection, not consumerism.
