So here we are before Christmas. I've always found it an odd time in a lot of ways. Weird in that as I've got older, I've never fully felt "Christmassy" at this time. I'm not Scrooge by any means. I mean, when I was younger and in the glory days of when old Saint Nick was squeezing his big bottom through my chimney, I loved Christmas. I used to love all the Christmas songs and got really into it. but now, I'm kinda of the attitude, "sure we'll get a nice dinner and spend time with people we like anyway". Before, it "CHRISTMAS, IT'S CHRISTMAAAAAAAAS!". Ahem. So yes, my attitude has changed. I mean this time last year, my mind was not exactly in a cozy state and needed it to keep me going. But now, I'm so happy, I don't actually need it. I'm not saying I don't want Christmas, but if it was cancelled, I'd live with it and smile away. People get very attached to it. That's good, it's full of happy memories for most of us, but we should keep that Christmas spirit all year. What sickens me the most about Christmas is when people try to be all friendly with you when they wouldn't look at you for the rest of the year. We should all strive to be kind, warm and hospitable to people from the 1st of January to the 31st of December. Impossible, yes, because many people are false, weak-willed and are simply not capable of being so inclined, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try. All our lives will be all the better for it. And on that note, I'm gonna bust you out my favourite Christmas tune. I personally feel this embodies winter as a whole. It's different, it's enchanting and it always send shivers down my spine! The world is different at Christmas. And one thing that makes me happy is strolling around seeing how different the world is at this time, because there is no comparison. I won't say anymore, enjoy the video and the song, I'll say Merry Christmas even though I'll be back active on this once I finish exams on the 20th and have a lot more free time. So yes, Merry Christmas!
