Merry Christmas! Yeah, that’s right, I said it!
I love Christmas time. I do. I enjoy everything about it. Eating. Decorating. Eating. Driving about and looking at lights. Eating. You get the idea. It seems, though, that people have, in some degrees, lost a little of the Christmas spirit over the years. It certainly doesn’t help that Christmas time is knee-capped by people, organizations, and companies who would prefer you keep your seasonal wishes, if expressing them at all, to "Happy Holidays". But that is another blog altogether!
I say we work a little harder at being kind this year; especially during the most difficult and stressing times. When you are stuck in traffic, let some cars out! Maybe they will do the same for another poor shopper who was desperate enough to venture into the fray. Bake some cookies and give them to your neighbors (okay, just to the neighbors you like). Rekindle some of your old Christmas pastimes - like sprinkling reindeer food on the front lawn this Christmas Eve. I am sure that you can think of a hundred other niceties in which to engage and recapture the Spirit of the Season.
Merry Christmas to each and every one.
