Christmas
Christmas is such a special time of the year - but it's not all about the presents and tinsel, there's so much more - family, love, togetherness, joy, simple pleasures shared. The birth of Christ, the spirit of Christmas, the specialness of a day where we pause to remember how blessed we are before a new year begins.
A few reminders about what Christmas is all about.....
Let's give each other the gift of not having to exhcange gifts
It's not what's under the Christmas tree that matters, it's who is around it.
Maybe this year is not the year to get everything you want, but the year to appreciate everything you already have.
Presents are okay. Presence is priceless.
In this holiday season there is still joy to be found, hope to be grasped, and love to be shared.
Because Christmas 2020 will be the best we ever had!
I plan to be busy this holiday season, but not in the way most people accept. I’ll be busy finding my courage and calming my nerves. I’ll be busy making meaningful connections with the people I love, despite current circumstances. I’ll be busy celebrating the beauty of the everyday during this dark season. I’ll be busy getting in touch with what is real in this world. I will be busy being present in my life.
Reminder: We don't have to continue holiday traditions that leave us broke, overwhelmed and tired.
