Not going to lie though, this Christmas feels so different. Actually, the feeling of christmas fell off some years back, maybe 2020 or so and since then, we’ve all just been pushing. But this year, it feels like Christmas itself doesn’t even know it’s today.
And do you even have to wonder why 2023 christmas is not christmasing? the country is a mess right now, people are hungry and angry, people are just taking it one day at a time, there are mood swings everywhere, everyone is trying to be happy despite everything. And although, it might not be the same for everyone, I believe quite a number of people feel this same way.
Someone said we shouldn’t forget the main theme of Christmas which is the season of love, and it made me ask myself if I have shown love to those around me or even anyone in general. I have done some little, nice things to some people but I don’t think I was doing it because of Christmas, as I wasn’t even feeling the Christmas-y vibe, I just showed love. Or maybe we shouldn’t wait till Christmas to do that? During this period, I have also done some things that aren’t ways of showing love, like I’ve argued, yelled and said some words which I shouldn’t have.
All in all, today is christmas and we should all try our best to make the most out of it. And it’s fine if we can’t also. There’s always next year and next time.
