Some people aren’t counting down to Christmas,
They’re counting down how many “firsts” they have to survive without the person they miss most.
While the world hangs lights and wraps presents,
They’re just trying to make it through Christmas time which doesn’t feel the same anymore.
Grief doesn’t take a holiday.
It sneaks into songs, traditions, and quiet moments where laughter once lived.
The memories sting a little deeper.
The silence stretches a little longer.
So if Christmas feels heavy this year, you’re not broken —you’re human.
You don’t owe anyone cheer.
You’re allowed to cry, to miss, to remember.
And if your table is still full,
cherish it.
Take the picture.
Say I love you.
Hold them close.
Because somewhere out there, someone would give anything
for just one more Christmas with the person they love.
