Aside from the hustle and bustle of Christmas shopping, holiday-themed dinners and parties, hanging garland and mistletoe, admiring lavishly-decorated store fronts, baking the honey ham or icing the gingerbread house...
This time of the year is for...
reflection on the past year,
preparation for the new year.
Look back, be thankful.
Look forward, be hopeful.
A time to make peace, forgive, heal, share, spread joy.
A time for love.
And for all the singles out there with no one to cuddle with in front of the fireplace...
Ignore all those "I'll have a blue Christmas without you" lonely love song non-sense! Seriously, they should ban depressing Christmas songs... they are counter-intuitive!
Don't mourn the loss or lack of that special someone in your life, but celebrate the presence of the many special someones who care so much about you!
Be merry! Imagine all the possibilities the new year will bring, and only keep "the good."
