Dear December, the other months have left me torn and tattered; a heap of hurt. Have mercy on me and let me in. For I am locked out in the cold by hands I burnt myself to warm.

Dear December (2021)

Letters to my Favorite Month

*bringing back old traditions

December 12, 2021

Dear December,

The days are going by faster than ever. I’m trying desperately to soak in every second. With a week left of school before Christmas break, I’ve been thinking of revisiting old traditions. One of the things I was most excited about when moving into my own apartment was being able to decorate it for the holidays. With that comes to exciting possibly of documenting the experience. Whether I’m taking photos, making video edits, or writing, I long to document or capture the moment. It’s been a while since I’ve put pencil to paper, since I’ve dug deep into my own thoughts and feelings. What a better way to step back into the world of writing than bringing back old traditions, Dear December: Letters to My Favorite Month. December is my favorite time of the year; it feels me with joy and hope. It gives me the opportunity to self-reflect. These last few years have completely shaken my life, as it has done with everyone else. I’ve been reminded to slow down, to take the time to express my gratitude, and to put more effort into the things that make me happy. I’m happy to be stepping back into my creative passion. I thank December for inspiring me to get started.

 Love,

Mary <3

Dear December,

Please help me to be more understanding of myself, of the people around me, the situations I’m in, may I understand that even the bad ones have an end. Help me to love when it seems most difficult, to forgive even when it is something I do not want to do, to grow and learn even when I feel like staying the way I am. Help me to move on but to still carry affection. Help me to dream more of good things for myself that I know will come in the future. Help me to know when enough is enough. Help me to say no to bad things in my life. Help me to trust again and to let myself be vulnerable with people that actually want to help me— not use me.

And December, help me not to be bitter.
