Let me start with the fact that in my family we meet once in every two years in a group of about 50 people to celebrate Christmas. These are unforgettable moments, especially for children, when they can feel this Christmas atmosphere in such a large group. As it has been organized for a long time, from the beginning of my life I could experience how it's course has changed due to the global technological progress.
I don't know how much it is a the matter of a different point of view as a person over a dozen years older, but it seems to me that my first Christmas was more atmospheric, now everyone is looking at the phone now and then, everyone is taking pictures non-stop. We no longer focus so much on celebrating this holiday itself, but these are just my observations based on my family Christmas Eve over the past 22 years.
Of course, this year such a big Christmas Eve, unfortunately, couldn't take place, which interrupted the several dozen-year-long sequence.
