The Christmas Thread

Every year Christmas comes around, I say that this is going to be the year I just sit back and enjoy the season, not getting stressed. Ha! Yea right! Here it is, 3 days till Christmas and I still have shopping and wrapping to do. I completely spaced on going to mall for Santa pictures with my 5 year old. :cry: This year was super stressful, started homeschooling my son. So, I am struggling with being mom, teacher, and “Santa helper” Let’s just say, Heavy has been on repeat all of December! But I am sure all the stress will be worth it when my little one is opening his presents on Christmas morning :heart_decoration::christmas_tree::gift:

Merry Christmas!

I can’t believe we actually have some snow on the ground this year, the last few Christmases have been hit-or-miss.

Gifts? Waking up that morning is a good enough gift for me! (an LPU package under the tree wouldn’t hurt, either).

Every year growing up, we would always celebrate the holidays at my grandparents’ house. It was a fairly big family gathering on my mom’s side. Until my cousins all started growing up, getting married and starting families of their own. Until my grandparents eventually passed on, leaving us all to go our separate ways and start up new traditions. Now we just have an immediate-family dinner here at home. Some years, my dad’s sister and my cousin and/or one of my mom’s brothers will spend dinner with us, too.

The holiday for us is also a time of remembrance.

I don’t have words to express my gratitude with all of you, even if I had them, they wouldn’t be enough.

There are like 100 soldiers with whom I speak, but for the time and the rush, I only publish part of my gift now:

Over the darkness world where all the hope is lost and there is nothing else to see, but a weak light on the horizon shine saying: “remember all the sadness and frustration and let it go…”

A voice from that light tell us a history, its history, pay attention:

Where the stars sing, your light shines by itself over that dark world covering in white rays the yours.

A soldiers appear running to reach your fire. In a park, they look around it searching through the shadows and that mist. What are they looking for? You!

Their friends need your lights. Where are the angels singing? Those soldiers won’t give up in their fight against the dark, even if your light goes out. Our will will be the path.

Keep showing us your energy and together we will protect each other and our world from that black presence. This light is their leader, and those warriors are ourselves!

Without anyone realized it, the history that the voice told them became into the reality. Now with all the problems we have in our own lives, we always take care of the others, because we are not friends, we are family, and together we scream:

#FuckDepression!
#MakingChesterProud!
#MerryChristmas!

Whenever we are now: #LongLifeLinkinPark

There is not need to say be strong, we are strong! So I just say: Don’t forget that I love you all and love the life!

We have an xmas tradition in my family where we actually open our presents on xmas eve. This year I got the Lego technic 42066 air race jet. I was surprised at the complexity of the build, it wasn’t hard but it packed some impressive compact mechanisms. Pics below; I’d post gifs too but it’s easier to link a review video.

Apologies to anybody who I may have missed, I think maybe missed newer members but hopefully most are there, regardless happy holidays to everyone who makes this place as special as it is

In case it’s not really noticeable, it’s meant to be an acrostic poem, I was trying a full anagram but after a few hours I gave up lol and tryna rhyme everyone in lyrics or poem wasn’t working either lol
