Merry Christmas Eve Eve, y'all! I'm not sure if I'll have time to blog over the next couple of days, so I wanted to say that I hope you all have a wonderful and joyous holiday! Remember, it isn't the material gifts you give or receive that make Christmas beautiful - it's being there for your family and friends in ways that you can't put a price on that counts.
I think that's been the biggest thing I've learned over the past few months, a lesson I needed to re-learn once again. The people who are with me are with me just for myself. I don't have to buy their affections, just as they don't have to buy mine. I don't have to do anything except be myself, quirks, issues, and all, and vice versa!. I'm not saying that gifts aren't nice because obviously they are. But they're not necessary to keep me around and I'd say the same goes for those I'm closest to. [Unless my friends and family are about to all dump me because I haven't been slathering them with SL and RL gifts lately. *snickers*]
But I am lucky because I have friends and family who are happy to just gift me with their time. Even if it's just a private plurk to say hello or an IM to talk about nothing, that is a fantastic thing to me. I am so grateful for these people.
But if you do feel the need to get me something... Just send cash.
:-p I'm kidding!!!
Merry Christmas, you guys. I am grateful and blessed each time one of you reads my silly blog, whether you are a silent reader or one who takes a moment to comment or reach out to me in world to talk about something I've said. Thanks for putting up with me. ♥
