"It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.” 
- Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!

One of the most glorious messes in the world is the mess created in the living room on Christmas day. Don't clean it up too quickly.
