I chose to be alone..

I spent Christmas day alone.. I was not feeling well by christmas eve, so I just spent most of the time in bed, sleeping.. I was thinking of going to my aunt's place but for some reason, sleep won over and I ended up oversleeping and did not go anymore.. Christmas day, I was alone in the house because I did not go to another yearly celebration at my cousin's place (mother's side).

It may seem so lonely especially with all the Christmas spirit in the air, and the fact that I have been so christmassy for the past few weeks but I spent time reflecting on the things that have happened to me for the past year and the blessings that I have received. I had an alone time with God and with myself..

But it never erased the fact that besides from my "unwellness", I was emotionally unwell, as well. :| Maybe because I really did not have any avenue to let it out so I chose to be quiet nalang. Siguro, some people may say, why I let myself get affected by the circumstances, but sometimes, when you can't really face a situation or at least be civil about it, you just resort to avoiding it and stay quiet.

I'm not going to elaborate on what really bothers me, since it's a very personal issue but at least it will help me to just let out what I really feel about the situation.

I just hope and pray that the next year will be a wonderful one..
