Spirit of the Season

So here I am not knowing what to write about and mom tells me to write about writing because thats what she did. And of course you know I have to do what she says because if not I'll hurt her feelings.(Not really but I don't want to write about writing because its "what she did"). So its nearly Christmas and the tree is up and songs are playing and we are all cheerful till Christmas is over. Thats one thing I've never quite understood we are all happy and joyful around Christmas and sometimes it may last to the new year but after that no more. We are not as cheerful and we just fall back into our normal routine of just doing whatever we do and completely forget about the joy and happiness that the holidays bring.(When I say we I mean me too. I am not an exception we are all in the same world, breathing the same air, and living in the same point in time.) Now I am not going to go off and say "we should pretend its Christmas every day because one-all children in the world today would be spoiled, and two-every one would be broke from buying gifts. Although it would be nice if everybody was cheerful all year round but thats next to impossible and plus we wouldn't enjoy the holidays as much. I guess what I'm trying to say is enjoy the holiday while its here, enjoy the company of friends and family while their company is there to enjoy. Eat good, live well,and love much because you never know what can happen in a days time. It's Christmas enjoy love those you normally wouldn't, show kindness to those who need it, give an example for others to follow be kind, loving, give more than you receive and you will receive enough to make your heart content, even if what you receive isn't a material possesion. Most of all though enjoy life while you have it and I don't mean foolishly I mean enjoy the kindness and love and warmth of being surrounded by family and friends because like I said a lot can happen in a days time. Merry Christmas.
