Five years 前 (I was nine) I was sitting in my aunts car on クリスマス Eve, and we were talking about a tv 表示する in Holland called 'all あなた need is love'
I don't know if あなた know, または have the 表示する in America but the tv 表示する is about people who get unexpected visits from people that they love,and then, for one night, they can forget all their problems and enjoy Chrismas Eve together. I thought that it was a silly show, they have a great day, but when the great 日 is over, they still have their problems.
My aunt (who was married to my uncle) thought that it was a great 表示する and she was saying things like 'all あなた need is love' and 'I'm so glad that I've found realy love'
A couple months later, my uncle got a new girlfriend and my uncle and aunt got divorced.
I'm thinking about this now, because my uncle is coming, today, for Christmas, to have ディナー with us, but I know that my aunt (and the two children that my uncle and my aunt have) is still sad and that she will have a lousy Christmas.
And that brings me to my problem: how can あなた be happy at クリスマス while あなた know that a lot of people are sad. Everyone is happy at Christmas, people say but あなた know that that is not true.
A lot of people pretend that they are having fun with クリスマス and that they are happy. But あなた know that after the 'happy days' like クリスマス and New 年 they're still unhappy, just like they were during クリスマス and New Year. No stupid holiday can change that.
Maybe I thought about this way to much, and I know that あなた are suppose to enjoy クリスマス and that あなた are suppose to have fun. And I think that I will try to be happy, but, tonight, when I'm sitting at the 表, テーブル during the クリスマス dinner, while my uncle and his new girlfriend are making jokes,I will think about my aunt and her two kids who will pretend that they have a 'great' Christmas.
P.S: This is my first soapbox article, and my English is not so good, I've tried to make no mistakes in the grammar, but I'm shure that there are lot of mistakes, sorry.
P.P.S: Merry クリスマス to everyone!
