There is no doubt that gifts are nice but I look forward to celebrating Christmas in peace. Literal quietness that’s missing in my daily life – whether physically or mentally. There’s always something happening in this house or at work or even in my head when I’m asleep (dreams are robbing me of restful sleep).
Why? Why would one want to spend Christmas alone (apart from it being a lack of choice)?
I want to spend this time to refocus on THE true reason for Christmas.
Ask me now and I can rattle the reason to you but I have to honestly say, it will lack some enthusiasm. I feel so far away and it’s not something I’m proud of admitting. I try, then I stumble. I stay where I am for a while, then I try again.
I can only say that I am VERY glad that God is always faithful!
The term “Scrooge” or “grinch” is used when one does not display a “Christmas spirit” at the end of the year – but really…what is the “Christmas spirit”? Or rather, what is the world’s definition of “Christmas spirit”?
I have no planned script for this post – it’s all over the place!
I look forward to time alone.
