All words that we use to define the holiday season.
But how many of us actually feel these deep emotions during what is supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year?
Instead, we suffer through the holiday hustle and bustle. The next trip to the store. The next gift we can't really afford. The next party we don't have the energy to enjoy…. And on and on and on it goes. We promise ourselves this year it will be different. This year we will sit and enjoy the holidays. This year we will spend more time with our family and less ticking off our endless to-do lists.
Sometimes it works. Usually not for long stretches, but in those blissful moments when our children get tangled in lights, or the dog eats a strand of tinsel. When we get that unexpected or homemade gift that warms our heart, or when we see an old friend in town.
They're so fleeting, those moments. Especially when the holidays offer a different connotation—one of sadness at the loss of a loved one, or the weight of celebrating alone.
Whether the holidays represent stress, a tight budget, loss of time, loss of sanity, or immense sadness or loneliness… there's still hope…. Even if it's only in a meager collection of bright moments we can cherish among the rest.
