This month of Christmas…we’re all going nuts; with so much to do, there’s no ifs ands or buts.
Buy presents, hang tree lights, pop cards in the mail, send gift packs, thread popcorn, find turkeys on sale!
Decorations need stringing up all through the house, and you haven’t a clue what to buy for your spouse!
School concerts, receptions, open houses with friends, long lineups, short tempers, tying up the loose ends!
With all our mad dashing, we’re reeling from shock; Let’s stop for a minute and really take stock.
It’s crassly commercial, the cynical say, if that’s true…that’s our fault…it is us and not they!
Take time for yourself…though hard it may seem…enjoy your kids laughter, excitement and dreams!
Tale a moment out now…don’t get overly riled…Instead make an angel in the snow with or without a child!
That shortbread can wait…and so can the tree…What’s important to feel is a children’s sense of wonder and glee!
The holidays aren’t about push…rush and shove….
They’re for friendship…and sharing and family…and love!!
Hear the bells…..feel the warmth…light up with the glow…of a message first sent to us so long ago….
It is all about Peace…love…and goodwill….and hope burning so bright!!….so when Christmas eve comes….Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!!
As much as I would love to say that this was my own work ..if found it years and years ago …in I think a readers digest possibly…I added a little and edited a touch but wanted to share the sentiments for y’all! I hope that each and every reader out there has a wonderful holiday season…whatever type of holiday that you practice! If you are not into celebrating much then I hope your winter season is an amazing one!
