wanna know a secret?


The air is so different now. I don't know how to describe it in precise terms but there is just this feeling within me every time I get a whiff of the air these days. It's as if it's filling your insides with something.

It's like the air is carrying a secret promise, and as the days pass by it can no longer keep it to itself. Thus, it finds a way to whisper it. And once its soft whisper reaches our hearts, we cannot help but respond to the untold promise of something that would lift us up from where we are. We close our eyes for a moment, and inhaling deeply, we smile to ourselves as we feel our insides being filled with this secret. And although we are not quite sure what the secret is all about, we are willing to make room for this unknown puzzle as we believe that this certain piece would somehow fill that void within you, even just for a while.

But the weird part in all of this is come Christmas time, the void actually becomes more distinct. It's as if that emptiness within you managed to grow by itself without you knowing it. And you know why it feels bigger than it actually is? It's the air! It has managed to cover that hole within us by making us feel all warm and fuzzy inside until that perfect time when we have our guards down. And at that point it uncovers that void once again to release its full force upon us. And you already know what happens next...

So, you see, the air is actually deceiving us.=P Don't let it get you!
