What is difficult for you this Christmas season, and where do you find happiness despite your current situation?

Not knowing where I'll be this Christmas. Honestly I'm just trying to keep myself emotionally stable that day. Last year was a really good thing for me, but I felt uneasy a great deal, but something beautiful was waiting for me. 

This year, who knows. I'm hoping for the best, but know it may not happen, because that is the way life is. It's not easy, but is. It hurts. I am not sure what my plan B will be for myself this year. People tell me to hope. I don't like hoping, because, quite often, it leads to disappointment.

@batgirl1234 rather than hope something out there will make me happy I am trying to give others joy and find happiness in my own mind.

@soulsings I am told I give too much and do not think of myself enough.

@batgirl1234 whatever I do I try to take a look to see what my motivation is in what I do. It surprises me sometime that what I think I do for others I have another motivation relating more to myself. The mind is tricky. It plays tricks on me all the time.

@IsaGuzNa90 I am sorry for your loss. That sounds like a challenging holiday.

This is the second holiday season without both my parents. It makes holidays a lot different.
