Hello dear friends, (Yes, I need to talk again ;D ;D.) Too many of us have been in difficult times this year, these months, these weeks. Too many painful moments. Too much loneliness and/or desperation. Too many of us think that they will have another sad Christmas holiday. That it should be better to come later.... Believe me, I know. And I feel. But I also feel something else. That we should have THE MOST BEAUTIFUL Christmas ever. This year. That we can have it. Yes, we are ill, we are hurt, we are alone. But these are parts of us. And the joy that this holiday can give us is a part of us. It's the time for accepting, forgiving, moving on and enjoying the biggest gift we ever received: our lives. When I hear a Christmas song or I see an add at TV, I feel desperate, frustrated, angry, lonely, hurt, ill. But you know what? I also feel it's time for joy. I also feel the need to share all this love that it's inside me. The gifts I'll give will fade the feeling of loneliness (think about their eyes and their impatience when they try to open the box). Decorating my house will give ME joy, it's not something that I have to do. Think about the surprise on people's faces when you'll wish happy holiday to someone you saw in a store for the first time. We need this joy and we can offer it to the others. Please, do that this Christmas. I love you! Monica

Dear Monica, I agree with you, I know what you mean. But even when Im kinda down in the dumps,once I start decorating the tree and hanging lites everywhere and remember what Christmas is really all about,I cant help but be happy. And what you said about smiling at people you dont know, every one I see whos not smiling,I give them A merry Christmas and a Smile,I know Ive been made to smile on a bad day,when some stranger took the time to smile at me. I wish for Love and Happiness for everyone who reads this.and the most Wonderful Christmas ever. And Monica that goes double for you Love and Light Bex333

Dear Sidney, I'm glad you noticed ;D. "Bucharest City Hall will attempt to break two other records after Christmas, when the people of Bucharest will try to create the largest sausage and the largest cake in the world." So, there is still work to do this year.
