Charlie Brown isn’t the only one who gets sad around the holidays.

A lot of people do.  I’m one of them.  I love Christmas but I still get sad thinking about those who are no longer with us and that another year is coming to an end.  I know that this holiday, just like last year, is going to be especially difficult for many people around the world.  Don’t be ashamed if you’re feeling down this week.  You’re not alone.

Last night, I was cheered up by watching A Charlie Brown Christmas on PBS.  (I’m still mad that Apple TV+ tried to make the specials an excusive to their streaming service.  Talk about going commercial!)  Charlie Brown is feeling down for the holidays too but he finds someone to talk to.  Unfortunately, that person is Lucy.  However, sometimes it’s most important just to have someone to talk to.

This year, I hope Lucy finally gets her real estate.
