Holidays are coming. The Christians are anticipating Christmas, when they will eat chickens, and our Muslim brothers also know their good neighbours will share food their way, so it is a merry-go-round...
After Christmas comes New Year, a celebration for all. It is a day when you cannot avoid greetings because Happy New Year greetings will start flying up and down from everyone, including strangers...
Honestly, the last time I seriously prepared for the New Year celebration was in 2011. I remember how I planned to use my December salary to buy New Year clothes, and that was exactly what I used it for. I remember this because it seems to be the first and last time I bought New Year clothes. Since then, I have taken every day as a day to celebrate and dress well instead of waiting for a New Year...
The reason why I believe every day is a day of celebration is that life is short. We do not need to wait for 365 days before we do what is right and enjoy our lives. We do not need to wait for birthdays to gift our loved ones, neither do we need to wait for Valentine's Day to show love to them. Every day is that day...
As for the holiday season, the kind of life I am living right now does not make me care much about holidays. Being self-employed and working from home takes away that feeling because there is no need for a holiday, as every day is a resting day...
But then, I was once a teacher, and holiday seasons like this were when I used to visit my parents. I would spend the few weeks of the holiday at home with them and connect with friends to create more memories.
During the time I was teaching, one of the reasons why I loved spending my holidays at home was also because of my first love. I got to see her again, and we got to talk. It was just beautiful until what happened happened...
With the economy as it is, there are no big plans for the coming days during the festive season. No beach plans, no travelling, and nothing special...
The current economy will ruin many people's plans concerning this holiday because most people are barely trying to survive, so there is no way for them to make big plans for the holiday. This is how bad the economy is. But then, we have people who are not seriously affected by the economy, and they will enjoy their holidays the best way they want.
But then, it will be memorable...
How will I make it memorable? The beauty of memories is that we do not need all the money in the world to create them. So, for this holiday, I am expecting some guests, family and friends. When the house is full, the holiday period becomes more interesting because there are a lot of things to talk about.
