The holidays are approaching fast.
Making plans for Thanksgiving.
This is my favorite time of the year!
You just have to remember to take things
one step at a time.
Don't allow the holidays to stress you out.
Breathe deeply and remain calm.
Take a look around you, and see the joy that
the small things bring into your life.
In the end, all things work out well all on their own.
We get so caught up in the "rush" and trying to
out do ourselves with gifts etc. that we miss
what it is all about.
So try not to get "as" mad at the person in line taking
forever...or the person that stole your parking spot.
or the store that didn't order enough of the product you
wanted in time.
Because in the end, we all blame it on the holidays!
And it's not the holidays that's at fault...
We all put the pressure on ourselves.
Have some faith, and do the best you can.
Relax and breathe deeply, take one for the team!
And then just sit back and watch the magic grow...
Money controls and dictates our lives...
but it can't take away our precious moments
that unfold right in front of our eyes.
It can be a comment from a small child. One
you least expected to hear. Something that teaches you.
It puts everything...back into perspective!
So if it's only about sharing one make shift Christmas dinner
with your friends and/or family, making the gifts that you
give because you couldn't afford to buy them.
Or sharing your food with someone less fortunate,
Please make time to "see" what the holidays are
really all about and enjoy what you have.
Wishing you all the best of the coming holidays!
