I am so excited for Christmas to almost be
here! It is easy to get caught up in all
the things we “have to do” such as Christmas cards, baking goodies, parties,
buying presents, and so on and on and on… until we come to a point where we are
so busy we wake up and it’s January 1st and we missed the whole
season because we were too busy to enjoy it.
Slow down and breathe in the sweet aromas of pine and cookies and
gingerbread men. Don’t get so wrapped up
in your wrapping that you are distracted from the real reason for this
season. He is born this season and
because of this we get to enjoy this life and all it has to offer – so please,
go ENJOY it J
I
definitely urge you to go out and experience all the season has to
offer, after all, who doesn’t enjoy that amazing peanut butter fudge or the
look on your parent’s/kid’s/friend’s face when they open that perfect present?
And the twinkling lights of Christmas decorations in the house and Santas
waving in the mall can’t help but fill me with a warmth and joy. Therefore, go and find out the best the
season has to offer.
If you are one of those people that find the
holidays difficult to endure, take heart – you are not alone, in fact the
holidays are the darkest time of the year for many a person indeed. I know this
doesn’t make it any easier for you but just know you are important, valid,
relevant. Try and find happiness where
you can and know that with every period of darkness eventually there comes a
light and yours is coming soon.
So, I bid you adieu for now and am off to
continue with my holiday preparations. Keep
in mind that time flies by even faster when you are having fun, so don’t forget
to look up from your shopping lists and stringing of lights and appreciate your
family and friends and live each and every day to the upmost celebration and
live well and in love.
