Prompt: How have the holidays changed as you have grown older? Compare your experiences of the holidays during childhood with how you experience them now, focusing on shifts in perspective, responsibilities, or emotional meaning.

 Prompt Response: For me the holidays have changed a lot as I've gotten older. As a child the main things you would ask for would be toys, just objects that were bright with color and were popular among children. As I've gotten older the more I started to care less and the less I feel excited about holidays in general. The family started to not come around anymore and Money became tight. The main thing I focus on now is having something to keep me warm since Georgia Weather can never make up its own mind. For me only thing that matters is that my siblings and my mom and dad to all keep in touch, back then I would never pay much mind to that and care more if my cousins were coming over to my house, in hopes that they sleep over. Wishing for things on my wish list became my own check list, gotta work for what you need and save up for what you want. 

Summary: Monday December 15, 2025, In class we were watching the novel of "The color Purple" 

Reflection: I try to be there for myself everyday in any way that I possibly can. To focus on myself and reflect on who I am. To be the better version of myself is that I achieve to be everyday. Thank God for another day.
