“In life, you have people, your people. Some of those people choose to leave, and some of them leave but didn’t have a choice. Then life has this crazy way of moving on, and giving you new people to fill the holes left behind. You may not have asked for them, or understand how you were lucky enough to have that void filled. But when you accept it, and you let them become a part of your world, you can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of joy at seeing them happy. So, when I say this is the best Christmas ever … it’s because at this moment, I have more than I could’ve ever hoped for in my life. I have this wonderful family and all its love.”
