[bilaliz]

The best thing about the winter is;

the ability to look back at a year of accomplishments, both personal and those of mankind,

the ability to hug people I haven't hugged in a long long time,

the ability to give back to the community,

to be once again in awe of the beautiful snow and the lights and the colors and the warmth that comes along with it!

[FrostyButters]

It's definitely Christmas Dinner with friends and family
