| A Lonely Holiday |

I am always that kind of people who likes to be surrounded by family members and friends. Together, we share happiness and sorrow, laughter and tear in life. Even those most miserable days, I feel safe and inspired with them around. So, I never thought before that one day, I would leave them and be alone in another country. But it did happen. Now, I am alone in French because of further studying. Everything became so difficult, especially during the weekends and holidays. Now the Thanksgiving Day is just around the corner and no way I can book a ticket and fly back.
Thanksgiving is one of my favorite festivals. With all the relatives and good friends being together, usually, we will have my mother's home-made apple pies, the tasty turkeys, and have a glass of grape wine, which is carefully selected by my father. My little brother will play piano and people dance with the rhythm, and some others can play cards or other games. Those sweet little thanksgiving gifts will be changed after the deserts. Then around the fireplace, my father always tell us stories about the old days...To me, this is what the paradise looks like.
But, those things just exist in my memory. None of them are going to happen in this Thanksgiving Day. I was upset for few days, and then I made an oversea call to my home. My father talked me for a very long time. After that, I suddenly realized that the bond between my family, my friends and me is never limited by the distance. It could surpass the distance and time.
Now, all my stress and loneliness are removed by that call. I may not be there with them, but I can still prepare some thanksgiving gifts for them. Since, I am in France, the city contains all the fashion elements, and of course I can buy some fashionable goods for the family and friends. Perfumes, leather bags, lipsticks etc. Would it surprise you that when I pay for all the gifts, my heart feels so warm and tender? I felt like they were there with me all the time.
All the gifts have been sent out now and they will come to my house before Thanksgiving Day. If any of you share the similar situation with me, remember to make a call and tell your family you miss them. As to the gifts, I always understand, gifts are telling people your love and gratitude to others. So, pick some with concerns. |
