It’s Christmas Eve day and it could be just another Saturday for all I know.
Living in a non-Christian country and in a climate with weather like late-spring or early summer in the winter makes it rather difficult to muster up that Christmas spirit.
I have a tree up – lights and all –
There are even presents under the tree. I’ve watched a Christmas movie or two and am downloading some Christmas tunes for tomorrow.
Still…it’s not the same when it’s not cold outside and a warm fire is crackling in the stove and my family is mulling around preparing for the holiday. Although I try to make it my own – it’s not the same. 
However, I shall not despair! Perhaps tomorrow I will be of a more festive mood. 
The tree looks great! Christmas definitely isn’t the same when you’re not home with your loved ones… Just gotta put on some Christmas movies and tunes and make it feel a little more like Christmas! Wish I could be there to share the day with you. Love you, dear friend! <3
