By evening, Christmas becomes softer.
The messages slow down.
The noise thins.
Someone somewhere is washing dishes after a meal.
Someone else is scrolling, unsure what they expected today to be.
That’s alright.
Not every Christmas has to feel magical.
Some are simply honest.
If today brought warmth — hold it gently.
If it didn’t, let the day pass without judgement.
Merry Christmas, again —
not as a greeting, but as a quiet hope for peace before sleep.
