Christmas Pine Wreath with Pinecones, Berrys, Nuts, Snow, & Lightsby habit, we don’t start with our christmas decorations here before the first advent, and unlike in the philippines, the tree is usually set and adorned two or three days before christmas (and not in september!). but in light of recent developments, this year will be an exception. i plan to unearth the tinsel and all-that-glitters this weekend and make the flat all christmassy. with the days getting shorter (today it was pitch black by 5 pm), i need the twinkling lights and festive ribbons to chase the literal and figurative shadows away. i might even get a plastic tree.

i know. i’m in denial. but what else can i do? wallow in grief? there’s enough time for that later. we’ve been granted time. time we should spend being the happiest we can be.
