12/13 Holiday Horror Stories
Quote From: us_navy_wife06I know that everyone has had there share of trials and tribulations during theirs lives, but Christmas is a time when people should just put aside the problems they have and enjoy their friends and family. In 1995, I was ten years old and found that my dad had inoperable brain tumors the day after Christmas. Two weeks later my one and half year old brother passed away from congestive heart failure. So yes, I do understand that the holidays can be a rough time for people, but they shouldn't allow it to destroy the holiday season for everyone else. I still celebrate Christmas and enjoy it. With bad times also comes good times and the good times are the ones people should let fill their hearts at this time of togetherness and love.
Krystal Now, you would have real reason for Christmas to be painful, but you choose to remember the good, (not forget the bad of course) and take in life as it happens. GOOD FOR YOU! I'm so sorry you lost your father and brother.
This is the reason I love this time of year. Good cheer breeds good cheer. Your post made me smile, and made me tear up a bit, but also made me realize how good your attitude has served YOU well over the years!
You have a REAL reason to feel Christmas pain and you choose not to.
This is much more real than an ugly shirt.
