What would you say,
how would you feel, and what would you do, about not being able to spend
Christmas and the beginning of a New Year with your dear family and/or friend(s)?
I know most certainly I would get zillion varied answers to these questions.
Well for the first time after thirteen years, my wife reminded me early this
morning, the 1st of January 2019 that we are spending this day apart
from each other. It is our first-time vapid experience of the day we have
otherwise advertently enjoyed together! Circumstances have robbed us of a lot,
and I assure you it is neither by deliberate nor imprudent choice. It would not
be a fallacy to guess, or better still judiciously say that you have already
responded to some or all of that.
Familiarly, in my
response to my wife’s exposure of the present reality, it was literally like being
wakened up to acknowledge the staring, lonely, and incising fact.
