Holiday Blues
Today doesn't feel like Christmas for me. It's very depressing. I'm used to spending the holidays with my uncle & other family members. Today just feels really crappy. I don't have much to say, but I wish that you all are having a better holiday that myself.
Listening to my uncle's favorite song is helping me to mourn a little. He always enjoyed listening to "Please Come Home For Christmas" by Charles Brown. He & my grandmother (his mother) would blast this song loudly on Christmas Eve & Christmas Day. Music helps. Perhaps the song will bring you joy as well.
Charles Brown- Please Come Home For Christmas
Bells will be ringing the glad, glad news
Oh, what a Christmas to end the blues
My baby's gone, I have no friends
To wish me greetings, ooh, once again
Choirs will be singing Silent Night
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas, by New Year's night
Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
This is Christmas, yeah, Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one you love
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam
Christmas and New Years will find you home
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Year's night
There'll be no more sorrow no grief and pain
And I'll be happy, happy once again

Yea, I felt a little out of it this Christmas also. Just hung out and watched movies all day. Like 4 of them. At least one was good.
Bless you this Christmas and the upcoming New Year. 2005 is just around the corner.
