That time of year

Despite all the strangeness of this year, especially how it didn't feel like Christmas at all, I think that this year was one of the best as far as spending time with the ones I love goes :)  I found out this Christmas that I really have about 4 or 5 families, each of which want to spend time with me.  It was pretty crazy to have people who really want me around.  That was the main difference about this year, and I think I like it.

It's crazy to me that as each year goes by I find that I want less and less as far as material things go.  I remember a time when that was pretty much all that went through my head when Christmas came around.  I'm not sure where the change came from, but I do know that I really like the new way of thinking.  It makes Christmas mean a lot more than it used to to me, and I really enjoy the feeling of just being happy with being around the people I love most in life.

Merry Christmas all, and I hope this year was just as good for you guys as it was for me :)
