Hey folks, I know it's been really really long since I posted something. My sincere apologies for the delay and the reason was I was travelling home and was caught up with finishing the work before leaving and didn't get to write even after reaching home. 

So finally I got to write one … on Christmas Day?!? Yes, you heard it right! Usually during Christmas at home, we would go out or have guests in but this time it was different. There weren't people around; off of them are at their hometowns and didn't come for the holidays. And the people in our circle have work so the party ended early and also a party after Christmas is slated to happen to include the working people. But a party after Christmas is no fun even with the lights and the decorations. It is because the Christmas vibe ends on December 25th and it will only return next December. 

However, this time was no different, as the vibe was gone even before the day was gone and that is one reason I sat down to write. I would still write even if there was the vibe and if I was home then. The vibe depends on the place and the people and that makes any event more lively and vibrant. 

Christmas this time was no fun because there was no people to enjoy with. I came home for the Christmas holidays because I wanted to be with my family for Christmas as I used to every year, even when I went for college in a different city but unfortunately this time, they had work and I could spend some time with them only five hours and we had brunch before they left for work. 

Maybe it wasn't the right time to come home because there weren't people and the cases are also rising with the introduction of another variant; i.e., omicron. But I don't think I would be coming again because by then, the family will be shifting back to the hometown and I would also be busy with my work and planning my future ahead. 

If I had stayed back in my hometown, I would have spent the Christmas at my relative's place but I didn't want that and feel restricted being in that space. I am not sad about not having a fun Christmas, but the month of December had been declining that I didn't really have hope and all I need at the year end is some peace. 

It will all be fine, at least I am home with my family and got to spend time with them, even if it was few hours or so.

That's all for now, wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
