'Tis The Season

I often tease my wife whether she will choose me to come home without money during Christmas Season or I can just send the money and spend the season without me. She will then tease me back that she doesn’t care even if I will have to spend my lifetime away from home just that I will not fail to send money back home. And then I will stare at her and she will stare back at me tying to find out if she is serious or not. We will then laugh and tease each other again until we turn to another topic.

I knew how much my wife loves me. The proof is there for instance whenever I arrive for vacation and she will lock me inside our room for hours (of course she is inside too). Up to this time, I am happy that we still have too much to long for each other. That’s why she has doubts about how can I last that long without “it”. I told her that if she were a washing machine that I use to wash my clothes, when I am away I manage to wash my clothes manually by hand.

There are lots of things I can think of that would remind me of happy times together. And in times like this, when it will be the best time to celebrate the Season with the family, all I can do is think about it. Accept that life is not that easy. While other people have “ups” and “downs”, I am very thankful that what we have is “being away” and “happy times together”.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYBODY
