So it is december once again. the month of many birthdays and holidays.
my birthday is coming up here in a few days. everybody is asking me what i want for my birthday and christmas. all of those people seem to be angry with me when i tell them that i don't want anything, nor do i need anything.
i grew up with not having a lot of stuff. i learned to get by with what i had. my mom pretty much raised me and my two brothers by herself. my dad was there, but he wasn't there (if you know what i mean). eventually my parents divorced, and it has always been the 4 of us. money has always been tight. my mom scrimpt and saved everything that she could she always tries really hard to provide a christmas for her kids. Over the years , christmas has become a materialistic holiday. so this is why i never ask anybody for anything.if i ever need/want anything, i will go out and buy it myself. i don't like to ask people for anything.i am proud of my mom for raising me the best that she could. she tried with all of her heart to give us a christmas. she helped me realize that christmas is not about what you want, it is about what you already have.

I love you Mom
