And with the Holidays come holiday parties, holiday music on the record player, and a sudden desire to not wear what I slept in. The fake eyelashes come out of their box, stockings out of their drawer, hair is put into pin curls, nailed are painted, and festive clothing rescued from the back of the closet.
Perhaps it's
the Publix commercials that never fail to bring me to tears, or seeing
wreaths hung on doors, or stockings over fireplaces, but the holiday
season seems especially merry this year.
2015
has done its best to knock me down - and it's going out with a bang -
but despite the painful things in this world, the holiday season still
comes around, presents are still given, and love is still shared. There
may be days when it's hard to get out of bed, and hard to face the
things one must face, but these moments of happiness (however fleeting)
make life worth while.
So, Happy Holidays. Hold your loved-ones close, appreciate what you have, and eat lots of cookie dough.
xoxo,
Eliza
