Gypsie’s Wonderful World of Words 
A brave poem, Ami. You’re a strong woman ❤ You'll always have the blogosphere to share your words, and we are happy to read them. Wishing you much warmth and light this Christmas, though I appreciate of course, it may not be your favourite time of year.

Thank you Sunra! It used to be my most favorite holiday …. The lights, the tree, the food, the relatives and the rare camaraderie of family. I loved how the wrapped presents looked under the tree and that expectant air of anticipation. I loved the faith I had in people … then. Things change – I celebrate internally now.🎄🎶
