This time of year is something I just “survive.” The only joy for me is through the eyes of my kids. I’ll be counting down the hours until my dad leaves my house on the 27th. Survival.

Survival sometimes, is a beautiful thing. If you want help making it more than just that, I know a LOT OF PEOPLE here willing to help try.

Thank you for this beautiful reminder. While I am excited as I always am (because this is my favorite time of year), I am also juggling sadness and grief this holiday season. It will be a different experience, but I intend to still find as much joy as possible.

Hi Taylor,

I think this is a very compassionate short pcs you wrote toward this year’s closing. Not just that, it‘s very inclusive, too. Guess that not everyone will be happy (feel at ease) with long holidays, especially if holiday be a social activity. Social activity takes place only on condition.

I know these things because I used to get very sentimental, too, on holiday. I thought I was the only one left alone. I thought I was the only one abandoned. Though I am OK now. I don’t think like this anymore, but I do understand and resonate with people, who have no one by their sides.
