Happy celebrations to you all for whatever reason you choose in the silly season.
But this time of year is not so jolly for everyone.
Tomorrow will be the 23rd of December and for many this is leading into time off work and party mode with friends and loved ones. It's not the same for us all. On this date 2006 my brother died. He crashed a car burned to death in a single car accident on his way to work. This time of year is a constant reminder for me of him not being here when he was the only blood family I was ever close too.
While people like me in this situation who have this time of year as a constant reminder. We may be a bit more quiet than usual, not as interactive or as interested as the rest. We don't care to rain on anyone else's parade just because it is a time of year we struggle a bit more than most. Or parents who can't see their children on this day. Many other reasons that this time of year is not so good for everyone.
It can be a real struggle.
While these people may not even tell you, they just are not as interested as most.
Please leave them be and just enjoy yourself around others, as we won't interfere with your party bring you down.
Have a heart and just leave these people be however they manage to be comfortable and get through this period.
No need to tell them they are a kill joy coz they just don't got that bullshit xmess spirit thing goin on. They already know they are down and mostly trying to blend in the back ground knowing it will pass.
This is not the picture of his car. It was burnt and I just don't feel like taking another look at them to put up for all to see. Hard enough to write this.
Was a long time ago people. Just written as a reminder that some suffer this time of year. Not as hard on me these days but I remember when it was.
The old saying.
Just go easy on people you never really know just what they are going through.
