HAPPY Holidays

You know the saying, "Happy Holidays"? I never really fully understood that saying until this year. But, now it makes total sense. How can you not be happy this time of year? No matter how hard you try to be upset, you just can't. 

Tonight I was studying for my last final and I'll admit, I was grouchy. This test is going to be death and studying for it is physically painful. After all the pain I could take, I went upstairs to take a break and walked past our Christmas Tree. So, I stopped and sat down on the couch. I sat on the couch for a while and admired the tree and the lights before me. I then gathered my studying stuff from my room and moved to study by the light of the tree. Instantly, my mood improved and so did my studying. 

You just can't get upset when sitting in front of a Christmas tree or Christmas lights or anything having to do with Christmas for that matter. It's just not possible. If you get short tempered or upset this month, look around you. I promise your feelings will fade as quick as they came.
