Here we are again, another holiday, but when it comes to holidays people feel the Christmas Blues more than any other holidays!
What is the Christmas blues? It is someone who is not happy during Christmas. Someone who may have loss someone through death, or something tragic happening during the holiday like a seperation or bad memories when you grew up.
I read that it is common for us to feel the blues because of something happening during the year. It is more common than you think.
How do you know if you have these blues? Maybe you don't feel like Christmas shopping or attenting a Christmas staff party or concert. You don't like the hear those Christmas songs on the radio. You don't feel to laugh and put on a face of happiness to please others.
How do you get out of the blues? Time to talk it out, talk to someone about how you feel and why you feel that way. All wounds do get heal in time.
Remember when you where young and in love with someone. You Never thought you would get over it. THe blues is the same thing. It takes time, but it does get better. It maybe not now when you want it but time will help you. It is like taking baby step to achieve something.
So maybe this year is not the year you want to decorate. THat is fine also.
Did you know that you are not alone! Somewhere else, there is someone who think it the worse holiday for them, just like you!. I guess it all depends on how much of the blues you have.
So this year if you have the blues, get help to bring you out, and if by chance you are in a position to help someone, just even to listen and let them cry on your shoulder, do it. You don't have to say anything and a hug may go a long way.
And please dont over do it with Christmas carrolls in the stores. It may be worse to have them playing all the time than substituting different music.
Remember you may be happy, but someone else may have the blues!
Happy Hoidays to all
and for those who have the blues,
May God help you, comfort you and guide you at this time.
