This is not my story, I read it, and wanted to pass it on to all…..
The old man sat in his gas station on a cold Christmas Eve. He hadn’t been anywhere in years since his wife had passed away. It was just another day to him. He didn’t hate Christmas, just couldn’t find a reason to celebrate. He was sitting there looking at the snow that had been falling for the last hour and wondering what it was all about when the door opened and a homeless man stepped through.

Every year my family flips out ore the day
I don’t know why they continue this way
Just let it be over, get the meal on the plates
Open the gifts and flip open the gates.
Another day over, the holiday is gone
Take down the tree, turn out the lights
Ma and pa sit with shovels and brooms in each hand
Pushing the snow, and waiting for spring to come into sight.

Building Memories
I decided to forget about everything that makes me sad, and make memories. I had the most wonderful day I can remember in a long time. I thank-you God for giving me this gift of relaxation.
