Its my fav season of the year. Its not the deco, or the air of festivities or the pressies. Its that time of the year where I am awed just by the feeling of Christmas time. This year, I barely felt Christmas right up to about a week ago. Work has consumed my time and my being. Its unhealthy, but I still do it. Not an addiction, but something I've given to accepting with much resignation.
Very important Christmas lesson this year: Be in control of your emotions. Never let it stray to a point where you cannot get it back. * bride of Christ concept*
Presents I bought this year:
1. Jean Paul Gaultier perfume for me mommy
2. Track pants for my sister - the idea was to get a personalized gift :)
3. M&S cookies for Pat
3. Cranberries yougurt coated for Rosey
OMG! Nothing else. I felt like I spent all my savings
Lesson of the year: Honesty is NEVER the best policy. Its a lie people tell you so they know what you really mean. Even if your friend is competitive or bitchy, if it doesn't concern you, just carry on with life. Everyone's not meant to be Mother Theresa. There's a reason why Mother Theresa had a ministry amongst the poor in India. Only survival matters.
I found my Gingerbread man again. He's now been a year with me. Covered in whitish stuff.. which I like to think is snow in his land. Enough said.
Blessed Christmas!. May things be blessed in the Look Like Busy realm.
