Written listening to the song: Mariah Carey - All I Want for Christmas Is You (Make My Wish Come True Edition). The stars are shining, the snow is falling and the lights on the trees begin to surround the city sullying the truth in my surroundings.
Today is Christmas Eve, today is simply Christmas, but apparently time is a reflection of the chime of longing. I rose very gently from my bed and headed to the kitchen to brew a warm cup of coffee. The sound of Christmas singing can be heard, it's coming through my window.
I do not know very well what I should do, for years I do not know what it is to celebrate Christmas, it is as if my heart is dry, dry and with a porosity that suppresses my emotions in a progressive way.
The songs sound, they do not stop and try to pierce my blood to ignite my world in an emotional way. A ray of light has entered through the window, who is it? It seems that magic has begun to come to this place. The handle of the door of my house shines, it shines very deep.
The house is filling up with unique things, smiles begin to exalt, and the phone rang, my parents have told me they are coming to this place, am I a kid again? It seems that the cup of coffee was magic, it was so magical that everything has begun to change.
The lights, the star is on top of the old tree, and ornaments surround it. A toy train is underneath it and runs around my living room full of presents. Where are we going? I don't know, it's been so many years I don't know what Christmas is. Help me! I don't know how to act happy.
Let's have fun for a moment, the snowflakes are falling, falling in an intense way all over the place. The alarm has sounded, yes, it has sounded in a way that has made me wake up. Everything that happened was a simple dream that had to end.
I got out of bed again and looked at the empty living room of my house, no trees, no lights and magic. I am accompanied by the same cup of coffee and it is telling me that it is time for a change. I decided to be a kid once again, I called my parents and told them to come here. To come because it's time to really celebrate.
I got dressed so fast, that dream was premonitory and I started laughing before the night was over. Let's go what do I have to buy? Let's be crazy happy, and spend some money after all it is Christmas.
I bought a little tree, look how the snow falls. I have always loved snowmen. The smile has come to my face, and my hands won't stop shaking, I became a child once again. The car was filling up with so many things, I couldn't believe it, what happened to me, why didn't I live this until now? Simply, the enchantment in the street was permeating and it will also reach my house.
You can hear the carols very deeply, it's Christmas and people are just laughing, living with so much excitement in the streets. Should I buy a turkey for dinner? Yes, and also several gifts to give as presents.
Where is this place? It looks like New York or something else, it's my place, it's the place where people are celebrating and we all look at each other with happiness. I may look like a silly boy, but this is me wanting to see a real day shine. Let's say goodbye to work and loneliness.
I've arrived again, I'm home and have started decorating, nuts, turkey and candy surround the kitchen. The coffee mug is in the same place I left it and it's time to set up the Christmas tree. How long has it been since I've done this? It seems like a long time.
She has also called and is coming to this place with my parents. What if I invite a few friends? Let's do it and let this empty place be filled with people who love me for one night for real.
The music started to play, my face emanated a lot of happiness and the night was coming. My house was shining like magic in my dream, I walked to the window and the lights outside looked beautiful.
As I touched the snowflakes I remembered the wish I made to Santa Claus: "I want to always be able to laugh at Christmas".
The doorbell rang, I was afraid, but it's time to open the door and celebrate again as a man who loves to enjoy special moments with the people he loves.
After all, let's celebrate, I turned the handle without any hesitation. And the answer was:
