My Grown Up Christmas List

Got this tag from Ems.

But before I enumerate my list, I would be publishing first the lyrics of the song with the same title as the tag. It happens to be my favorite christmas song of all time.

Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you
With childhood fantasies

Well, I’m all grown up now
And still need help somehow
I’m not a child
But my heart still can dream

So here’s my lifelong wish
My grown up christmas list
Not for myself
But for a world in need

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list

As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely
Wrapped beneath our tree

Well heaven surely knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list

What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
(there’d be)

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, oh
This is my grown up christmas list

This is my grown up christmas list

i love the version of lea salonga of course!

If you read the lyrics of the song, it says it all! It conveys what I wanted to write to answer the tag. But I also wanted to write my christmas list, my own, for my family and for those I have met and have known.

Here goes :

• that i may continue to be healthy. to continue to be in remission from lupus. that lupus will not attack any of my organs and this goes to all those lupus sufferers out there. especially those who cannot afford the medication. may they found someone to sponsor their medication.
• more lupus awareness in the philippines
• that anevay may grow up healthy and normal and with good attitude
• may all ofw and their families be strengthen and not weaken by the distance. no more broken families!
• for us, husband, anevay and me to be together again. i don’t care if we need to move to kuwait. just as long as we will be together!

so to spread the christmas spirit I am tagging Mhay, Sweet and Mayeth.
