Zonestist start to influencing of Christmas of 2023!

Hello everyone,                                                                                                                                           Look I know that like everyone else, that trying to get ready for finding time to find ways to go and be inspired into shopping for one's love one's and friends during this busy time of season can always honestly be tough, with how life in general is flowing since the last time when families and friends were able to get together.... which was of course the second to last Thursday for this very year of last month in November with something known as Thanksgiving or as I usually go an call it Trukey Day. I also know that somewhere inside us as people do find that we know deep down, we have to figure something out to get us in the mind set of being full of gusto. For some people they use the time building up to get into Christmas inspirational spirits by listening to seasonal music or like for myself watch something very influential related to the meaning of this very love fill holiday.                                                                                                                                  So as soon as when the new year starts one of my many upcoming things is going to be going back to some television series of the past years since starting this ongoing crazy blog that is always finding new opportunities to share my thoughts and takes of when I was a child. Yet one that I will be talking about today is the oldest one that I found myself self writing a overall review of since this past February of a little bit of everything in the mix of a story, yes that is right I am of course talking about the Twilight Zone. And even though I know that it rather late in the game of finding inspiration for shopping for Christmas gifts as I mentioned just up above, I went and determined that the best answer for it is finding the Christmas spirit is through a as I call it a Zonestist stroll into that series most focused Christmas episodes. Now just so that you will all know that I won't spoil these very episodes with the greatest of my own choice of details for when I go and review them as part of the series as whole, this will be for this year of sixty four years of historical joy of for at this given time.                                                                                                  I  decided to start my Zonestist stroll with the very last episode of the Twilight Zone's third season titled "THE CHANGING OF THE GAURD" 

, it was written by the series creator Rod Serling himself. In the story a teacher of literature comes to find out that after so many years of teaching about writing to at least six generations of young men that he finds dealing with retirement by seeing in his classroom several of his male students. Who in their own way with their words from their greatest potential which happens to be different for each other tell the teacher how his own perspective helped them in finding their way to dealing with encouraging themselves at certain points in their lives after leaving his classes. The message in this very episode was to show that everyone can really grow from what we learn during our lifetime regardless of where we end up at the end of each day...
     The second Twilight Zone holiday themed episode that I choose to helping out with being inspired by was the second season one titled "FIVE CHARACTERS IN SEARCH OF AN EXIT"  
, it is the very episode where these people find themselves as unknowable type of identities of who they actually are? They all find themselves on a one quest beyond who they all are... they are trying to find a way out of whatever it is they are in? At one point they all hear a very loud noise but still know nothing of where it's coming from? At one point in the story the ballerina says "Perhaps WE ARE MAYBE THE UNWANTED?" Let me ask you all this,  at this time of year, do you have feelings of being unsure about if you are needed in someone's life? well the answer is YES YOU ARE WANTED by the most important people in this very world you are wanted by the children of any age. An your true friends and especially your family as well! 
  My final attempt at understanding to look beyond myself at this very time of year,  comes from viewing the best of the holiday themed episodes of the Twilight Zone which is also from the second season an is titled "THE NIGHT OF THE MEEK" where a man who par takes in the yearly hope for the belief of being a department store gift giver known as Santa Claus. 
An when this empty man finds a bag in the oddset of places, he in his own understanding of giving is Chris Kringle as he is always meant to be.                                                                           When I think about Christmas every year and this is just me, when I see a child trying of any age from a newborn to however long our given existence is finding it within ourselves to provide a little or a lot of help to our communities is forever appreciated.  And I want more than anything to say trying is the best way to finding knowledge of kindness is what the whole meaning of giving of ourselves is best found in our hearts and mindset of helping other people everywhere. Now with my drive fulfilled I am going truly try my best on this upcoming Saturday to get hopeful in finding presents  for my dear loving family and good friends. Oh and before I forget about it,  I want to wish everyone who's reading this a very meaningful Merriest of holiday love!
