Not everyone around the world celebrates Christmas. But it does seem that on December 25 of each year, much of the world takes a bit of a breather. In many countries, everything shuts down so that even those who don’t celebrate Christmas take the day off.
For this December 25, we give you some stories from across the world from our correspondents and students that you might have missed this past year and that might leave you feeling better about the world you inhabit. Wait till after the new year to begin working on those resolutions and worrying about obligations.
