I've been wondering if I am allowed to feel sad today. I am truly blessed. The last two mornings have been heavenly: each morning the dog has allowed us to lounge for close to two hours. We didn't sleep; we just talked and cuddled, and it was so special. They were two of the best mornings I have had in who knows how long. I have an absolutely perfect prince. And the last two days have been spent surrounded by a family that loves us dearly. There have been gifts, and food, and more food, and games, and just an amazing time of being together.
So, am I allowed to feel sad? Do I have any justification for tears? I still don't know the answers to those questions, but if the answers ARE "no," then I guess I'm selfish. Because tears have come despite my best efforts. And sadness - though very infrequent - has been present.
So, this is Christmas: family and love and joy and just a small twinge of pain. And, now? It's time for bed.
I hope and pray that your day has been happy and blessed, wherever you are. And may God bless you abundantly in the coming new year.
