I seem to go through periods of time where I have more to write about than others. Lately has been one of those times where I have not had so much to write about. The year is coming to an end and we are about to approach 2009 just around the corner. I don't have huge new years plans this year, or any other year for that matter. I know that I am looking forward to spending the night with some of my closest friend.
Christmas...
Well, it didn't feel like every other Christmas. I reserved myself from buying gifts this year from anyone outside of my family. My roommates and I didn't buy a Christmas tree, nor did we decorate. I had no concept of how fast it was approaching this year, because of my lack of agenda of "things" that had to get done before the 25th.
Christmas morning I woke up, got ready, and went to my Mom's house for the day. It was one of the first days in so long that I was able to enjoy with my mom and brother. No fights, no fuss, no anger, just love. I thoroughly just got to enjoy a wonderful day with my family. I was more happy this year than any other year with having more gifts, or money. I love seeing the maturity in what is more important in my life. Stuff is not the answer. Stuff does not bring me happiness, it is mere instant gratification. The heart to heart love that you have with one another is what brings me my happiness. Trying to grow closer to my brother, loving my friends, and most importantly loving God and pleasing him. Other wise we would not be celebrating December 25th, otherwise known as CHRISTmas.
