It's Almost Christmas!

I honestly can't believe how time flies so fast! It's already August, just four months away till Christmas. Another holiday that I won't be able to spend with my family back home. This is going to be my third Christmas away from them and I just feel so sad realizing that it's been such a long time since the last holiday I spent at home with my love ones.

Coming from a close-knit family, it was very tough on me having to adjust to not being with them on special occasions. I have missed birthdays, holidays, and even just the small get-together we'd usually do every Sunday after attending church. Though, the thought of it always makes me feel sad at times, I'm just glad that there's a lot of ways now for all of us to still stay in contact with each other. So, this holiday season, I will send them Christmas Cards with a message that will surely make them feel how much I love and miss them and will tell them that even though I am not with them physically, I am there to celebrate it with them by heart.
