So close to the home country.....

I need a holiday. I can't believe how badly we all need to get on that plane. I'm at the point where I'm ready to just leave the laundry, the dishes, and grab a suitcase of presents, my laptop and jump on the plane.

I'm so full of emotion that I'm finding it hard to write. I'm watching friends go through horrible rough times. I've chatted with mums who are going to have to change their country, again. The glaring differences between the richest people on the planet and the poorest are in front of me every time I step outside my dwelling.

It is time to celebrate life. It is time to enjoy the festivities of the season. It is time to hug and hang on tight to those whom we love and who are so dear to us. Not to mention, it is time to enjoy food in the home country!

May peace be upon you.
