Five years पूर्व (I was nine) I was sitting in my aunts car on क्रिस्मस Eve, and we were talking about a tv दिखाना in Holland called 'all आप need is love'
I don't know if आप know, या have the दिखाना in America but the tv दिखाना is about people who get unexpected visits from people that they love,and then, for one night, they can forget all their problems and enjoy Chrismas Eve together. I thought that it was a silly show, they have a great day, but when the great दिन is over, they still have their problems.
My aunt (who was married to my uncle) thought that it was a great दिखाना and she was saying things like 'all आप need is love' and 'I'm so glad that I've found realy love'
A couple months later, my uncle got a new girlfriend and my uncle and aunt got divorced.
I'm thinking about this now, because my uncle is coming, today, for Christmas, to have रात का खाना with us, but I know that my aunt (and the two children that my uncle and my aunt have) is still sad and that she will have a lousy Christmas.
And that brings me to my problem: how can आप be happy at क्रिस्मस while आप know that a lot of people are sad. Everyone is happy at Christmas, people say but आप know that that is not true.
A lot of people pretend that they are having fun with क्रिस्मस and that they are happy. But आप know that after the 'happy days' like क्रिस्मस and New साल they're still unhappy, just like they were during क्रिस्मस and New Year. No stupid holiday can change that.
Maybe I thought about this way to much, and I know that आप are suppose to enjoy क्रिस्मस and that आप are suppose to have fun. And I think that I will try to be happy, but, tonight, when I'm sitting at the तालिका, टेबल during the क्रिस्मस dinner, while my uncle and his new girlfriend are making jokes,I will think about my aunt and her two kids who will pretend that they have a 'great' Christmas.
P.S: This is my first soapbox article, and my English is not so good, I've tried to make no mistakes in the grammar, but I'm shure that there are lot of mistakes, sorry.
P.P.S: Merry क्रिस्मस to everyone!
