Merry Christmas! (or I Hope You Are All Finding Ways To Celebrate!)

Merry Christmas everyone! As my posts on Christmas usually are, this is going to be a bit of a short one.

I normally would say that I hope that you are all celebrating Christmas with the people you love. But this year is different. As much as I want you all to be around friends and family, I know that many of you can’t. It’s so tough not spending a holiday with your family. I experienced that on Thanksgiving. But I know that not being with family on Thanksgiving was necessary to make sure none of us get the others sick. And I know that many of you know that about Christmas as well.

I hope if you celebrate Christmas, you can still find a way to celebrate even if you are alone. A virtual holiday isn’t as good as an in-person one, but it does help. So I also hope that those of you missing family can see them on a video chat today. And if you spending time alone and that’s what you wanted to do, I hope that it’s exactly how you wanted it to be.

For me, I usually spend Christmas alone. It’s not a big deal to be missing family today since I don’t usually see them. I’ll probably just be lazy around my house. But that’s ok with me and what I expected to be doing. It’s still a little harder than normal because I am feeling lonely all the time, but I’ll be ok and I know that soon enough things will be able to open again.

So I hope you all have an awesome Christmas (or Jewish Christmas), that you get fun presents, and you are able to be happy today!
