To most people, the Holidays is supposed to be about family and love and all that crap. All you ever see on TV, Radio, Movies, Newspapers, Department Stores--whatever, is nice, happy little families cooking their stupid turkey, and opening their stupid presents, and blah blah blah.
Why has society forgotten all about the people who don't have anyone during the holidays? I think a little more credit is due to those brave men, women and children in the world who don't have anyone to share this supposedly peaceful, loving and giving season with, and still somehow manage to survive with their sanity. Although for some of them, it's brought on by themselves, but for most of us, we just weren't really given a choice.
This will be my third Holiday Season alone, and you know what? It fucking sucks.
But I'm going to suck it up, look at the bright side (if there is one), hold my chin up, and whatever else it is stupid people that are happy tell you to do when you're sad.
I know I sound, mean, and heartless, and like an old Grinch, but really, I'm not. I'm just jealous because while most of the world will be spending time with their loved ones all happy happy and shit, I'm going to be cooking a candlelit dinner for one, and working overtime for no extra pay. Why? Because what else am I gonna do?
Besides, if my life weren't as sad and tragic, what would I rant about on my website to entertain you dear visitors with?
I do have some loved ones, even though they're thousands of miles away. Below is a small collection of pictures of my family. You don't have to look at them. |
