I was watching a cartoon today, and it was about Christmas.

And in the cartoon, morning came, and all these people were giving gifts, opening gifts, playing, having a good time.

Celebrating.

I don't care about the gifts, I don't need or want the gifts.

But I want the fun, I want the feeling of love and belonging, togetherness.

I almost shed a tear watchin' that dumb cartoon.

I remember what it was like to have a Christmas like that.

This year, like it was so many before it, will just be another December 25th.

A Monday.
