Thank you for visiting me at this busy time. Hopefully you are reading my blogs and availing yourselves of my books - for yourself as well as giftgiving. My earlier novels (see website) as well as my memoir are now available as e-books and at a very reasonable price. All are free of explicit sex or unsavory language and thereby suitable for anyone on you list who like to read. LOL.
HOW WILL YOU HANDLE THE HOLIDAY STRESS? In a relaxed and happy manner, or will you run up tremendous debt to disturb your sleep all next year? Will doing so make you feel more acceptable and loving to family and friends? I would suggest you pause a moment and access your present situation. If money is no object then you are one of the lucky ones (perhaps more hard work than luck). Regardless, giving of your time is the best gift, and more meaningful than another gadget, another sweater, or even a precious gem (unless it is an engagement ring). They may not remember the perfectly wrapped box or even its contents but they will remember HOW YOU MADE THEM FEEL.
This year, in particular, give your full attention to those about you. They may need a willing ear to hear and share in their concerns. Put aside the ego and help others cope with the Season with an extra tight hug, a friendly smile, and an “I love you” or “I understand”. That cranky old uncle you’ve been avoiding may have more to offer than you think. Throw him off guard by getting to know him better. Show him you care even if he is an old “poop”. You may turn his frown into a smile and, although he may never admit it, he’ll not forget how you made him feel.
I know you want the best for friends and family; just you and your presence IS the BEST. You’re irreplaceable even if you aren’t beautifully wrapped or wear a tropical shirt with pink flowers instead of a tuxedo. Real happiness comes from focusing on others and how you make them feel. Try it; your smiles may last all year through.
BEST OF THE CHRISTMAS SEASON - AND A HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR TO ALL.
