Well It’s Complicated

What is your favorite holiday? Why is it your favorite?

I will start by admitting that my favorite holiday used to be my birthday. The one and only day of the year that is about just us right? Then came Christmas. Christmas is a magical time that you get to spend with your family… fourth of July, Halloween… I loved them all. Now I don’t know if I’ll ever love them again. It’s complicated.

The celebration of the holidays depresses me because for the last 23 years I had someone to celebrate with.

And now I don’t.

It’s complicated.

I have tremendous support from my family, and I love them more than anything in the world… but somehow it’s not the same as my love was, IS, for my husband.

If only he loved me too.

It’s complicated.
