When my therapist suggested I volunteer at a local shelter to help children have a joyful Christmas, my first thought was no. I wasn’t a happy person to be around.
Besides after losing my son, I no longer celebrated Christmas. I wanted to be alone and miserable.
Yet I forced myself to go in hopes of seeing one kid smile. And in return, I found the last thing I ever expected- my Christmas angel.
She was all chaos and curves and she stole my heart in mere minutes.
Too bad it no longer was capable of love.
Only pain.
