It almost time to celebrate a new year with the ones you love and to look back on all that you have done in 2017.

To all the hard work that you put in at work and in every part of your life.

You begin to think about the things you got to do and see and how grateful your god blessed you with so many things this year.

That you can not look back with out smiling and enjoying the time that is all yours, you want to sleep in and be ready for tonight as the fun starts and the it doesn’t end until after the ball drops and you are now in a new year.

So many things you have almost got down but didn’t seem to have the time to do tit.

As the Holiday comes to a close and the new year approaches, some will go all out on their New year eve parties.

They will have nothing but the best food and drinks and snacks to eat and nibble on until it’s time for the ball to drop.

And the new year has arrived, will they be ready for what is to come or will they be blown away.

Will they go all out all throughout the year to celebrate a new journey they will be embracing or will they run away from the changes that may be coming their way.

Daily Prompt: Cozy

I wrap up in a cozy blanket and get lost in a book or movie and not think about going back to work.

I want to relax a little more and not worry about having to work and spend time on my feet.

I’ve enjoyed my time away but reality is setting in and right now I rather just enjoy my quiet before the storm comes.

My cozy times are coming to an end soon and I’m going to miss not having to rush off to work.

But, with this cold weather coming this way I realize more cozy time was definitely in my cards and days off will come now and then for me.

Daily Prompt: Confess

I want to confess everything that I’ve been dying to tell you the last couple of days

but, you are nowhere to be found.

I’ve looked for you high and low and no result or clue was left for me to find and I start to wonder if you were avoiding me.

I know that my confession will be a big one and it will take time for you to really let it sink in.

I know the time we will have together will be sweet and calm and once it is all out there is no going back.

It didn’t know that you had something to tell me too and you were just so nervous that you had to take a couple of days to get yourself together.

Once we came together and told each other what was on our chest we both were relieved and from there things started to truly look up for us together and as individuals.

Daily Prompt: Cherish

This time of year always reminds me to cherish the little things in my life and to appreciate  the time I get to spend with my family.

I cherish the moments with the ones I love more than maybe I did before because in a blink of an eye they can be gone and I don’t want to miss out.

I want to know that when they leave this earth that they were happy with all the times we spent together and lonely and sad that the ones that they ached for never came around.

I want to show them how much they mean to me and make their day for I love them so much and I want to spend so much time with them.

That nothing in this world is more important than them, for their love fills me up inside with so much happiness.

I cherish the ones who mean the most to me for one day they could be gone and I don’t want to regret not spending enough time with them.

Daily Prompt: Torn

I felt so torn between all the things I wanted to do this holiday and all the things I needed to do.

Everyone was coming soon and I knew just how crazy it would get.

I know I needed to take some time for myself because soon my amount of space for myself would be limited.

The the time for joy was near and I couldn’t wait to share it with the people I love.

I just hope the things I didn’t get done or get to do would eat me up alive.

Merry Christmas

Advertisements

everyone I hope you are enjoying your day wherever you are with the ones you love and hope you cherish all the moments you get to spend with them.

And remember that it’s not all about the presents but the time spent with your love ones and the birth of Jesus and how because of him we are in a better place if you believe.

This holiday always seems to bring the best out of some people and the worst out of others.

But, it’s a time where you just don’t want to give up on things for you want to believe it will all work out in the end.

For you want to enjoy the last minutes of this year before the new journey of 2018 comes your way.
