I was walking downtown at the holiday market this afternoon, there was the smell of spiced wine, pastries. Friendly faces everywhere, talking low about their hopes and the simple joys of life. A child began singing some little nonsense song in the most perfect voice and the talking died down as the crowd was caught up in the sound. I looked up and saw these fat snow flakes just drifting lazily through the sky. It was one of those moments when all the shit I have been carrying around in my head suddenly didn't matter. I just knew that life is so painfully beautiful, and that ultimately none of the bullshit we get so wrapped up in matters. Then all I could think about was you Lia, I hope you find whatever it is that makes you happiest in life. My only wish for this new year is your wellbeing.
Have a happy holiday, I love you
