Well, here I am, another year of the holiday season and I wish it was over allready. I remember when I was a young boy and I loved the holidays. Thanksgiving with my family was a meal I waited for all year, and now I didn't even have any Turkey this year. Christmas was a time I waited for with such antisipation that I used to try to stay awake waiting to catch santa,then I finally caught him and learned Dad was Santa, but still enjoyed the holiday through many years of my life. I don't know how I became so ill about it. Maybe it lost the magic and the people I saw around me in the world seemed to only view it as a present not a special moment of the year that love fills the soul. It became so much about the money and material things that I have become cold. I try not to, and I try to enjoy it for the magical day that it once was to me, but it is a little hard these days. As for New Years Eve, well usually I spent it home with the ex and my girls, maybe a nice dinner and Champagne at midnight then bed. But when I was young it was the adventurous night of the year where I got to sneak a drink or to from the adults, eat shrimp and all kinds of different food that I normally didn't eat and watch all the people act crazy. My Dads birthday is on January 1st so we always had a blast New Years Eve with a ton of relatives at my now long passed crazy uncle Dicks house.

So many good times in my past and many good memories that I have. Will my future ever hold as much excitement and wanting as those years gone by. I guess time will tell and hopefully something will bring such magic back in my life again

    Now it is your turn to create some of the magic that was the holidays.  First a receiver; then a giver.  Then is now!
