My 2012 scrapbook is a go. I've tried for several years to finish one to completion, but alas - story of my life. But I'm determined this year! <3

The holiday derailed me from my daily 'thankfuls', how sad is that? I'll be a cheeseball and say I'm thankful for everything, big and small. I absolutely adore this time of year. From Halloween ushering in the fall leaves and pumpkin-flavored everything to Santa's debut in the finale of the Macy's Thanskgiving Day parade marking the start of the holiday season, I just can't get enough of it. Yes, there are Scrooge-like moments...the lines are too long, nerves are stretched too thin. But when I stop and think about the reason we celebrate - Love coming in the form of a baby to help us all - the bad doesn't seem so bad.

You know what I don't understand?
People that consistently have to tear others down to make themselves feel better. There's this one girl in particular I'm speaking of. We used to be friends, even. Over tumblr/twitter. But she was just always negative, and I felt sorry for her. Because I've been that person before, and I know there's a lot of pain underneath the anger and snarkiness. I tried being there for her, but she's a pretty closed-off person, which I can accept.
I finally unfollowed her after she kept blatantly attacking the things/people/fandoms I love, in a very mean and passive-aggressive manner. Plus, we didn't really talk that much anymore as it was.
I visited her tumblr tonight just for the heck of it, to see what she'd been up to - I'm not sure why I was surprised, but sure enough - she was ranting and raving - not to mention making fun of me with her friends.
I guess what I don't get is how people can be so quick to hate and slow to love. That's where the hippie part comes in: I am truly a lover and not a fighter. Yes, I have strong opinions and will stand up for what I love, but seriously? Making jokes and being unnecessarily rude?
I just don't get it. If we could all be a bit kinder, life (and the world) would be a lot easier. ~shrug.
