hours before my white christmas.

i didn't think christmas would come this soon. i honestly made some decent efforts to start my christmas shopping a week ahead this year but apparently, there's something in me which repels punctuality. force of nature, i call it. despite having all the gifts in my room, they are all cluttered in paper bags, none wrapped, none with a personal touch. knowing me, i rather be late then present a friend with a less than perfect gift. it's not an excuse, it's a legitimate reason, at least to me.

christmas this year may seem quiet, but there's this other tinge of positive difference. my lord seems exceptionally real to me this christmas. i can sense his presence & warmth. christmas is not just a festive, it's a day where i will lay here, admiring the grace of my sovereign lord in gentle sweetness.
