Happy Festivities today, kids š I know some of you are smelling all the older, traditional turkey, pumpkin and dessert smells, while others are enjoying a different menu of more vegetables and grains, and some others are eating nothing of the sort because life changed before the holidays this year. It doesnāt feel like Thanksgiving here today. Itās a weird day.
I wish I could feel even a quarter of the lightness and bliss the holidays brought me during my childhood. Even a glimmer of it this year would be welcome but everything is so different that, that happy, calm is just not in reach. Iāve had hard holidays alone but even then I had a best friend who was with me for everything and I was his perfect fag hag, he left my life this year without a word. He was to have an attached cottage or cabin to mine because no matter what we would be old together in the woods somewhere. Life changes. People change. Most love is conditional.
Iām grateful for a million things all the time, so today is not the day to list them. Love the moments that make the good memories, youāll need those when life and relationships change. I have learned that itās just as easy to stand in a room full of people and feel alone, as it is to stand alone and feel content in your solitude. Blessings on all of you and yours for a safe, healthy and happy holiday. Everyone wants to get home alive, so donāt rush. Just get home safely. And donāt be a dick to the person in front of you, their pet could be waiting at home and they need you to make sure their stupid person gets home. Help the dog or cat out if not for anyone else. š
