I have never been on to rant, nor outwardly express my feelings. but here i am, and i hope someone somewhere can take a piece of this.
Christmas is fast approaching, and well the one thing that seems to pop into everyone head is presents + gifts. i had people close to me rearrange christmas plans because they wanted to go to be at another persons house for the presents. basically telling me oh well guess you wont be there because you work
my heart literally dropped. since when has this season become about the materialistic things and less about the family. my outlook on christmas is that is is everyday for us. if you really want something let me tell you, you are going to buy it. so why arent we reable to focus our intetion to spending as much time with our family.
i work in the death industry and how many time people will be like if i just had that one last day with them, or so many other things. we take advantage of the time we have with people till it is too late. on the other hand, how people have said they would sell everything to have another christmas with a loved one. now those words rip my heart apart.
i plea with you, take this Christmas to be with your family. With or without gifts. Do it for the days ahead you don’t know about, and will wish you could go back in time. for those who think we always have time. For those who don’t know that they need to surrounded by family. above it all, do it for yourself.
In the midst of spending time with your family create memories that will continue to bring them home. cherish the laughs and just make it an unforgettable time. plus take lotsss of pictures. those one day will be what you pull out on christmas day and reminsce over.
too those who red this far and are here. thank you for reading this.
may this season be merry + bountiful + heart filling.
