December The 25th, Mah Dear
It's strange. For the first time in my life, it's Christmas Eve (sorry, I forgot it's almost two) DAY, and I honestly can say that I don't care at all about what I might receive today. For the first time in who knows how long, I'm feeling truly content.
Now don't get me wrong. I can be just as greedy as anyone else. It's not like I've "realized the true meaning of Christmas" or anything. I'm not really giving anyone anything, with the exception of my brothers and a few close friends. I'm not being overly generous or full of holiday spirit.
I'm just happy to appreciate Christmas for what it is.
Christmas is a very special birthday, nothing more. The gifts, the decorations, the music and food...all are very nice, and I enjoy it all, but right now, I don't need it.
I don't need a stocking full of candy.
I don't need a new CD player.
I don't need a huge Christmas dinner.
I don't need anything, because I'm happy. Are YOU happy? And if not, why not?
This Christmas, if you can, spend some time with someone important to you. Take an hour or two and relax with a book or a game. Enjoy the day, and remember why it's special.
Christmas gets a perfect 10 out of 10.
I hope your holiday goes as well as mine.
And the reformed miser says, "It's not too late! I haven't missed it!"

A nice, sweet blog with no complaining or ranting? A blog with a good meaning? From Chris? Wha?? I'm amazed. Good job Chris!
wow chris, deep and profound. I happen to like it. I am happy about a great many things, and do be honest, with last nights news (the news we got at battlegrounds) ive gotten the one thing ive looked for since i was 10 anyways, and i didnt even ask for it, so really ive gotten more that i didnt even need :)
