A Love Story: Falling in love at Christmas
The air was crisp, and the street was lined with twinkling Christmas lights. It was a magical time of year, and it was about to become even more enchanting.
As the sun began to set, a man and woman strolled down a quiet street, both complete strangers. As they crossed paths their eyes locked, staring as if they’ve seen each other before. They continued to walk further away from one another, but there was a magnetic pull drawing them in, a soul connection that they couldn’t explain. This sensation intensified until they can no longer resist it. Both stopped in their tracks and turned to one another. Had the Universe conspired to bring them together? With a nervous smile she asked, “Do I know you? It feels like I know you from somewhere. You seem so familiar.” The man walked closer to her with a curious smile on his face. “Yes, it feels like I know you from somewhere, too.”
Neither could recall where this familiar feeling came from, as he extended his hand toward hers.
“Hi, I’mJackson.”
“Harmony.”, she replies as she grasps his hand. Instantly, a spark ran up their arms and all throughout their bodies, as their souls twisted together in a connection they never felt before, it was a big jolt…, They stared into each other eyes, silently asking, “Wow, did you feel that?” The world around them disappeared. “I don’t want this to end. Do you have time for a cup of coffee, there’s a café a block away.”, Jackson states slowly, still reeling from the sensation shared between them. Harmony agrees and walks in unison with him toward the quaint café she often visits around this time.
They spent hours talking, laughing and learning about each other’s lives. Realizing they had so much in common confirmed that their connection was undeniable.
The days passed quickly with every date they shared: Ice skating under the stars, enjoying hot cocoa and marshmallows during a bonfire, and a movie date with classic holiday films and snuggles on the couch. Christmas was drawing near and they had found something special in each other. It felt like they had known each other for years, so they spent Christmas day together, introducing this whirlwind romance to their loved ones. No one could deny that the two only had eyes for each other. Falling in love during Christmas was the best gift they could ever receive.
Their holiday love blossomed well beyond the season. New memories were made in the winter exploring the city, trying new restaurants and attending events. Spring brought new beginnings and they took their first trip together to a cozy cabin in the woods spending the days hiking, exploring nature, making love and discovering new things about each other. Summer was filled with lazy days at the beach, picnics in the park, and romantic strolls under the moonlight. As the seasons changed, their love only grew stronger. Jackson and Harmony laughed together, cried together, and supported one another through everything.
Years later, as they sat by the fire on Christmas Eve, they reminisced about their chance encounter all those years ago. They were grateful for that magical Christmas season that brought them together and for the love that continues to flourish. The life they built together was filled with Love, Joy, and Wonderful memories. Their love story was one of a kind and they were blessed to have found each other during the most wonderful time of the year.
Stay tuned for the full story.

Christmas is the season for giving. Today I will share my experience at my daughter’s toy drive. The kids really enjoy their presents and was very grateful for their gifts. I feel very blessed to have been apart of this event. I am very proud of my daughter, she did such a good job.
See pics below of the amazing event.

The toy drive was successful. It’s always better to give than receive.
We are in the home stretch now. There is just 4 more days until Christmas and I didn’t post any of my Christmas decoration. Me and my daughter had a good time decorating the house for Christmas. Check out the pictures and video below.

Today at work, me and my co-workers went to the Cheesecake factory to celebrate the holidays. It’s always nice to go out with co-workers to enjoy a nice meal and a few cocktails.
Plus at the office we decorated our desk and the area around it.
Here are some pictures from our office and the luncheon at the Cheesecake factory.
I want to talk about giving back during the Christmas season.
I will be giving back to a toy drive my daughter’s Cosplay Philly organization is having. The toy drive is for children ages 5 to 11. I’m very excited to be able to help out a few kids.
Another organization I gave to was Convoy of hope via Dancember which was started by youtubers Judy & Benji a couple of years ago. Donations help to feed children all around the world.
It always feels better to give than receive and it will definitely help you get into the Christmas spirit.
How are you giving back this Christmas season My Beauties?
Lets talk about how to get into the Christmas spirit by staying upbeat and positive.
First thing you can do is put on your favorite Christmas carols, pour yourself a nice glass of wine/beer and start putting up your decorations. Next thing you can do is bake christmas cookies, fix your favorite meal or invite friends over for cocktails.
You can drive around your neighborhood searching for the best Christmas lights or stay inside watching your favorite Christmas movies. You can volunteer at a homeless shelter or give to a toy drive.
Whatever you choose to do make sure you’re doing it with a smile and remember… Happiness is a choice, so choose to be happy.
