Tis The Season - Tumblr Posts
Put my little tree up. It reminds me of the one my mom always put in my bedroom as a little kid.
Two very different worlds. Two photos taken 24 hours apart from each other. The mountains and the coast. Last year I was excited to experience the more contrasting seasons. I wasn’t ready for what came after fall.
I was use to being under the forests of evergreens along the coast. The loblollys, long leafs, live oaks, and palms. Green all year round. Green has always been my favorite color and I had never lived in a world without it.
I never realized winters could last so long. When I moved last November, the leaves had fallen. It was gray and foggy, and I use to love the fog. That long stretch of gray.

The the world slowly began to sprout. On the weekends when I would go up in the mountains for fun, the gray lasted even longer in places. By the time spring did roll around and summer, it was too late. Too much happened. The gloom of the world around me fully consumed me in.
Spring was so beautiful. I tried to find solace in it, but I was already so terrified of going through more of what I had been through. We all know it was more than just the environment around me. But it sure didn’t help. I still love the mountains so much. I miss them. But I missed my home so much more.
I always knew I was lucky to live where I do now. It’s a very special place, but even though I was conscious of it, I never felt it. Now I feel it and I love my beautiful world here.

This is Alana Thompson aka Honey Boo Boo (Child).
She received $1700 dollars in donations from fans all around the world. Instead of keeping it for herself, using it for pageants, or for something else, she purchased toys for needy children in her area.
Her family gives to the needy AND supports equality for gays? Fuck you to whoever disses her. She’s 7 and shows more compassion than most people three times her age.
If the fiancee had her way...
THEY DIDN’T HAVE BOOTS IN MY SIZE ANYWHERE?

I DON’T WANT PEOPLE THINKING I’M NOT FESTIVE.
I HAVE AN IMMENSE AMOUNT OF HOLIDAY SPIRIT TO SHARE.
