Dearly beloved,
As another year draws to an end, a year that has shown us tragedy and unrest, a year that has shown us triumph and success, we must remember each other.
A time where we need to take care on the roads, a time where we need to show love to one another, a time where we have to fake a smile and pretend we actually like bum bags and have been wanting one all year.
It is a time to be jolly (alcoholic assistance may be required) A time to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas with family and friends, and yes sometimes family can be friends as well.
This Christmas it is my advice to you that you go out and enjoy it to the fullest, be glad in the gifts you receive and leave the room when your gifts are being opened, this way you save embarrassment of them realising that you got them the same thing last year. Eat lots, forget your diets for one day, is your diet really working anyway? Who are you kidding!
Have an afternoon nap and dream of the presents you would have preferred, after you have woken up force yourself back to sleep because its only 3pm and you still have many hours before dinner and then eventually you can sit down in front of the television and watch ballroom dancing championships from 1987.
Be thankful that Christmas in only once a year, and rejoice in the fact that next year you will have fewer present to buy due to family rifts scheduled for mid 2004.
I urge you to take care this Christmas, don’t over exhert yourself on facial expression after receiving dodgy gifts.
Have a jolly and merry day.
