merry christmas beautiful people!*

Hi beautiful people. Christmas has passed, but still exists the spirit of lights, shortbread, sparkling eyes, and hearts as open as presents. The joy of the pine tree, the shine of the ornaments, and all that is Christmas still drifts among us.    This year, Christmas was kind to me. I feel so full in my heart, and so wise in my head. Some people whisper the saddest fact in life is waking up on Christmas day, not a child anymore.  I don't believe this to be true. As I age, as we age, Christmas becomes something more. More than presents, and the mystery of Santa, more than big turkey's, and spilliage of wine. Christmas grows into a day where the fireplace is hot, the family is gathered, and the love spills into the air.  I've always been lucky. I've had Christmas in July, April, summer, spring.  Christmas spirits, and white teeth dancing have never been limited to December 25.  The love of my family, the love of giving, the love of lights, all of these things exist everyday.  There may not be a pine tree, or bows upon wrapping paper, or stuffing, or busy malls, or lit-up streets every day...... but there certainly is love....A love that beats through my heart, my palms, and my skull. A love that is fed by a family, and found in my smile.

Merry Christmas, happy living, happy breathing.
Swing through the halls, hug your mum, your dad, your lover.
It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air.
Kisses !!
