You could say that this is one of those cliche Christmas posts everyone writes each and every year.


Each and every year, I always recall this quote from the Grinch, "Maybe Christmas he thought, doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means so much more.".

And I'd have to be honest, at first I wasn't exactly sure of what it means exactly. Growing up as a kid, I became so greedy with having the most presents during Christmas(and not only Christmas, but in every occasion).

And here I am now, 22 years old. Currently in my second job, and soon to be former. Realizing that what the Grinch said was all but true. That during Christmas time(and life in general.), is not what's under the Christmas tree, but what matters is the ones who surround it, and what surrounds you.

I am thankful of the people who have left me. For they proved that they are not worthy of my time. The people who have stayed, thank you for your utmost patience. I have no words for how amazing you are with putting up with me. You are all epic, I swear.

I wish everyone I loved, and I have loved a Merry little Christmas. May this season bring you genuine happiness as it did to mine.

Also remember that in times of storms, some days you just have to create your own sunshine. So smile. It never hurts to smile. Everyone should smile. Like this saying I read before, "life really isn't that serious. We make it hard. The sun rises. The sun sets. We just tend to complicate the process." Someday, everything will make perfect sense. So just hang on tight, keep the faith, and smile.
