’Tis the night before Christmas, and the fireplace filled the room with warmth. A mug of hot chocolate rested in my hands. The radio played old Christmas songs softly in the background. I watched the flames dance and felt calm. The year had been challenging, but I survived it. Christmas reminded me how strong I had become. I thought about the people who supported me. Gratitude filled my heart. Outside, snow continued to fall gently. Inside, hope burned brightly. This night felt like healing. Tomorrow would be brighter.
