Is it a bad thing?
My day is almost over and I have actually enjoyed this Christmas.
Though it would be nice to have someone there with me; I find myself more interested on how other people are finding their day - good or bad. There is much more emphasis on the good and the bad at this time of year, I feel. This can make us emotional; but I find myself happier to at least be able to have some contact with people, even if it is indirect. You don’t have to experience something to imagine what it is like, even remembering an old Christmas, can give you something to focus your day on. To let your mind run riot, so to speak. Having a sad Christmas or a lonely Christmas is better to me than having nothing to remember the day by.
Last year I did not see things this way, and that was maybe because I didn’t see a future in my day to day routine. Experiencing the same lonely Christmas a second time over has given me new insight. I even put up a tree this time. Though I have no decorations for it, it kind of defines a simpler Christmas. I am pretending to be a grouch, for the fun of it
I am new to this forum and as such, I will not pour my heart out about the difficultys I’ve faced (we all have our troubles) and am not mentioning why or how I got to this point. I feel this would be too much, too soon, pushing people away.
I am only trying to convey how I see the world, in a light-hearted way. I think this makes it easier to connect with people.
I hope to hear how your day went too, so please, open up. I’m nosey
...if this is the wrong forum, my bad. I couldn't decide between general chat, loneliness or positive experiences...
