Next week I head up north to work at HMV for Christmas. I have watched the sainsbury Christmas in a day film to try and gear myself up. I must admit its an emotional piece. I feel very odd about the whole thing. I have to travel around alot to visit my family (being the one without kids that seems to make the most sense) but I guess that not having kids around at Christmas time is pretty hard to be honest. They hold the magic of imagination that keeps the feeling of Santa Clause alive. I dont want to start a tirade about commercialism and the use of pagan holidays to make more money for capitalism, thats not what this post is about. I think its about the feelings, Family, home, place, love, friends etc. It used to be my favourite time of the year because as a child it was set in stone (as a Catholic youth) what Christmas was all about. I no longer believe in God and I lost my faith a few years ago, what I do believe in is Love. I will try my very best over the next few weeks of commercial madness to be calm and hold in my heart the peace and joy that I truely want for every man woman and child. I hope that my family and friends when wanting to gift me something understand that I have all that I want in this world. I have the Love of the most wonderful man in the world, the best friends anyone could ever wish for and such an incredible exciting and beautiful life oh and two pretty cute doggies too. So please give the money to the people of the phillipines, or OXFAM, or Shelter (Shelter is one of my faves) they need it, I do not. I LOVE YOU ALL. PS If you see me being a grumpy git, shove a mince pie in my gob and shove a pint in my hand, happy days ;)
