getting older, getting wiser…..

The day after tomorrow officially starts this years’ Holiday season…. Yes! It is September ‘08 already! And being the first “ber” month every year, marks the start of the long Christmas Season here in the Phils. The countdown til’ Christmas doubles w/ my own countdown til’ my birthday the next day. ^^ And yah! when ‘ber’ month comes in, I can’t help but think to my self, I’m getting a year older again!…. I wonder if my husband thinks the same way since we share the same birth month. (O_^) hehehe…..
To be quite honest, I am often times perplexed how time flies this fast…. IT gives me the worries of getting old…. but on the other hand, I feel so blessed to have reached my age since not all are given the opportunity to be able to live a long life, or even up to my age now for that matter.
The Holiday season also brings about family or friends reunion. An opportunity to reconnect w/ long lost loved-ones. Self-indulgence…. shopping, eating, party…. w/o or just put-off the guilt til’ seasons’ end…. ^_^
For me, I am looking forward to celebrating this season w/ my family…. I am so hoping and praying that hubby will be home that time but I guess I just have to wait til’ he gets home early next year (puhon!^^). His work sched won’t allow him to come home this December. I’ve learned to accept things as they are w/o doubts or much sadness or regrets…. Anyways, everything happens for a reason and I trust God so much…. Everything has it’s own time in God’s plan…. Tis’ a good time to exercise my patience…. =)
Hope that this season would be joyous, peaceful and filled w/ love…. in the truest sense of those words….
May everyone Have a Great Holidays ahead! =)
God Bless Us All !!!
