Rekindling Your Christmas Spirit

It was one of the most magical audio I have ever heard🥺, while I listened to that, I closed my eyes and let myself be guided by your sweet voice, for that moment I felt so good and safe and after opening my eyes again, I had tears in my eyes, it was so beautiful😥 I wanted to thank you for giving us such a nice gift 🤗 even though I'm a little late to listen to it 🙇🏼‍♀️

I couldn’t make it through this the first few times I listened, I just kept breaking down crying. But in the end, it did make me feel better. I used to go shopping with my little brother every xmas eve day, it’s our tradition. We’re best friends. Now he lives in Toronto and I’m on the West Coast so we can’t go anymore. I miss it so much. But this imagining has helped a lot. Thanks for redecking the halls with fuckin boughs of holly Santa hat man ❤️😊✌️

Hold on..what’s this? Why is it so warm all of a sudden? Why my heart’s beating so loud? Why am I smiling? Ahhh! This audio is powerful and beautiful! The way you narrate that scene it’s like I am watching it plays on my mind. So sweet and peaceful, especially the bgm. Also your “It’ll be fun, I promise. I’m here now” These are the words that I’ve been wanting to hear from someone 🥺😭♥️ And I’m very excited to celebrate my first Christmas with you guys! Words can never express how grateful I am to find you G and the lovely people here! 🥺💘👏💯

Thanks, once again my sweet for your encouragement, I'll take it where ever I can get and if it helps bring some normalcy and a little joy to holiday 2020, hip hop hooray!!🎀I hope that you are doing well, getting rest, creating at a comfortable pace. That 's all...appreciate your efforts💝💖💋

I imagine anyone having any kind of issue with an audio like this would have to be a Grinch, looking to do so intentionally. A light hearted observation on my part, of course, as there was nothing but joy and love in this beautiful little bundle! I'm not for tearing up, I'm not a terribly sentimental person and yet in this community I've found myself genuinely moved by your kindness and care toward your listeners on more than one occasion. You've taken on the task to be a source of comfort in a time where such a feat is a nearly Herculean and I hope we never take your kindness or consideration for granted. You're a real one, G. I know this was a listener request as so many of your audios are, yet you still find a way to fill each one with warmth and make them feel personal. Of all your skills and there are many, I think that is the one that impresses me the most. Truly a beautiful piece of art to add to your audio gallery. Thank you thank you.

Thank you G. Your gentle tenderness ... I am crying right now. Been to more farewells in a the past couple months than I have in the past 10 years. Just came home from a sleepless weekend of memorials to find news of another loss. Your gentle tender loving approach and tone in this piece helped soothe the heartache and sorrow that has been building up. Thank you.

Everything is exactly how I have been feeling. When I closed my eyes and imagined it all I really got emotional and honestly teared up for a bit 😢 this was such a beautiful audio that I definitely needed 😊❤ I am very grateful for you Gael! Also p.s. I always love your choice in background music. They always fit the audio perfectly plus the melodies are beautiful

This quite honestly pulled at my heart strings in the most lovely way. I love these romantic and soft spoken audios they just make you all full of happiness

my stress levels have gone through the roof this year and these last few days have been really hard on me but this one audio just made me feel so warm, cozy, safe and loveeed thank you very much you magical irish lady whisperer you ! ♡

How do you always seem to know what's needed when it's needed? You're like some magical Christmas Elf or something! The last couple of days I've been so flat. Tired. Teary. Cranky. Over it. I miss my family. Even though we're not locked down we won't be travelling to see them this year and it's so hard. We have things pretty good here, relatively speaking and feeling like I've no business being so sad is adding a layer of guilt to it all. I really, really appreciated this. Thank you so, so much. I had a good cry and now I'm feeling a bit more warm and fuzzy 😊😊🧑‍🎄🧑‍🎄

This was so incredibly sweet and thoughtful🥰 Thank💋You! MUCH♥️LOVE and MUCH♥️APPRECIATION

I’ll try get into the spirit if you come help me wrap presents 🎁

This might give you a clue? This is one of my faves https://www.patreon.com/posts/7565724

I really, really needed this 🥲✨ I would love to spend Christmas how you described here! You are an angel for doing this, Gael! And the Lovely who came up with this one is brilliant!

Omg I love this I’ve been here at Gaelandia for almost 6 months, this spoke to me so much...since having kids I have found the magic of Xmas is so lovely to experience again.....and your Christmas picture you painted lol where exactly is that Santa hat being worn? And don’t say the bedroom lol ...ahhh the mind boggles 😋😋🎅🏻🎄💋👏🏻❤️🍀 thank you for this G it’s just perfect ❤️🇦🇺🥰

Oh, I wouldn’t give something like that a second glance. I don’t think any of us here have escaped PTSD in some form or another. I also can’t police my writing like that because it stifles creativity. It’s a light-hearted joke as you said. It also hasn’t much to do with the message of audio, if anything at all. The “comedy” that I write is usually super inoffensive imo. I’m already at that level haha, policing it further would have me miming behind the mic before long. Also, the piece isn’t over 😆😉

So needed this, its been a tough year for everyone and I've been feeling the separation from loved ones especially tough the past few weeks. This made me cry but ended making me smile. 💜 thank you 💜

So beautiful!. I really loved the soft piano as well. To everyone feeling down right now, you made it through such a rough year. Be so kind and gentle to yourself in every way you can think of because your beautiful heart deserves it. ❤️

I know this absolutely wasn’t your intention and that it was just a light-hearted joke, but the line about PTSD secondary Christmas tree misadventures kinda rubbed me the wrong way 😕 I think much of society still has a few misconceptions about the sorts of things that actually cause PTSD, the differences between PTSD and C-PTSD, etc. I understand the humour you were trying to get at, but I think there could’ve been other ways of phrasing it without potentially (and unintentionally) coming across as making light of the condition.

Your true compassion for others is your gift. Your light shines so warm. Thank you for getting into a business to share that. Humanitarianism is a big leo quality. The piano just added that warmth. I'm gonna go hug everyone in my house. Always shinning🌟

That was so lovely 😍

I love to cry

How sweet you are¡! You saved me because I really needed some kind words. To be honest, I came here looking for adult content, but the emotions you make with these stories are so warm🥺 You also have good taste in music! All my respects to your dedication! PD: The same is too early to say but i love you😚❤️

wow. okay, apparently I needed to cry. E's funeral was yesterday, its been almost a month, and as each month lasts a year, or only seconds, apparently I've been holding things in, and like with Permission, G, you broke my emotional dam, but in a good way, cause I had to get it out, let my soul be free...God that sounds dramatic, but I needed a reason to cry, and you helped give me that reason. You always manage to get us in the feels when we need it the most. Thank you G, thank you for this wonderful community, who are there when I need to reach out, cause as we say, over and over, a lovely is never alone, and I've made some amazing friends here who have held me up and I hold them up, and we get each other thru , my world wide sisters. Thank you my friend. Giant heart hugs to you

Yay so sweet. this year has been a long and strange trip. Everyone is depressed... But I have faith.. I want to shoot the spirit of hope up everyone's ass💞. I love you all. 😊 Smile and find the joy. This holiday will not be the same but it doesn't have to be ruined. I have the spirit and I want to shine my light. It's so sad to see the children being depressed, that I really cannot handle. It's not about buying things, that was never it. It's the spirit of hope. I wish you all a jolt of happiness to come over you🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 this little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine.. join hands and do the care bears belly shine💖💖💖💖

Aww I so needed this🥺😭 These past few months have been extremely difficult for me and I haven’t been in the Holiday spirit at all this year. Beautiful audio 💖

Thank you, Mr. Mayor! 🎅💖

Oh I so needed this! 🥰🎄🎅🏻 Go Raibh Maith Agat.

Aww this is so sweet! I’d like to hear the story of your friend knocking down the Christmas tree! 🎄🙈😂 and I so hope there’s a continuation for this!

Michael Buble can go SUCK IT! (haha no, that would tear up meh female card and he's not that dicky.) Edit: The boldface shame that I insisted my son be born to Mb's version of "Dream A Little Dream of Me". Should have been Nirvana with his personality. Suck it, failed spinals. The nurse was playing GLEE, Rihanna and Jay-Z. No, stop. Not for dis. My doc ordered all her nurses to play Buble in surgery the rest of the day. BUT I love this. Most of all,I love every call I reject when I mentally say "Yeah, we're not talking to them today." Gives every spam call a reason to smile.

This audio made me cry like a cute lil baby and I’m not even mad about it. I realize the cry was very much needed. Thank you G., you sweet potato ♥️ P.s extra *heart eyes* for the last part

Aww this is really lovely and so beautiful 😊 Thankyou ❤

Tracey

This was a wee bit Lifetime movie of the week for me BUT lovely all the same. TY for sharing your creative spirit. It is a much needed 🎁. 💋

This was just a lovely vision from start to finish. Thank you for wrapping us in the Christmas spirit. You are bestest elf out there.😘🌲❤🍀

I’ve shed so many tears this week. It’s been an absolute roller coaster of emotions. I have not felt very festive as I have in years passed. This year has felt so heavy. With my kids moving in the coming weeks I just wasn’t feeling it. This magical Christmas bubble is something I needed. You and Sweetz have just totally lifted my heart this week and I can’t thank you enough. Sincerely. 😘

so needed this after finding out that I have to work Christmas again this year. this was so so needed and I loved all of it...and it did help. Thank you so so much. ♥♥♥♥

This audio is the warmest bear hug I’ve had in a long, long time. I’m so grateful for it. It’s perfect. ❤️

Well, I always believed in the back of my mind that you were some magical spirit. Now I know it. Thank you.

You there, the man behind the voice, you have the sweetest& kindest heart♥♥♥ I know I might seem like a nutty Christmas elf with what I post&share, but there's moments, specially this year when it's been hard. I don't even know if I'll get to see my nephew this year again and it breaks my heart... I did get a christmas tree today and decorated it🎄, haven't had one in over 10 years. It brought back some of that childhood spark with all them old decorations. ♥ Thank you, for being you honey♥🍀, this brought tears to my eyes, but it also made me smile&giggle 💥♥🤗

The Christmas you detailed sounds like absolute perfection. 🥰 All the stress that the holiday brings goes out the window when I see the joy on my kids faces throughout the season. Their eyes are alive with excitement and that’s what keeps me focused on the good.

I really needed this as although my creativity hasn't vanished this year my love of holidays/events has. But I think I'll bake some xmas cupcakes for loved ones! Its the small things that help 💗

Vicki

Oh, how beautiful. This touched my heart.❤🤗😙❤❤

It’s the laugh that does it for me!! How can anyone feel down when that laugh and beautiful words are so uplifting 🥰 Thanks for this, I really needed it!

And I remember that Christmas tree story 😂 aaah that magical Christmas bubble you created in my head is the best! 🥰 HOHOHO! 🎅 😏 😂

Aaaand... now I'm crying. What the actual fuggity fack?

Calypso

So timely and needed. It's really hard to get into the festive spirit this year, but I'm trying, and this certainly helps. Thank you for making this 🤗
