It's here again! Christmas! Whatever you do
from here on out don't make too many more appointments. Wind
down what is on your plate. Check out a
Christmas concert or play.
Get some shopping done and pick up a few
extra gifts as they save you from the last minute anxiety of
forgetting someone.
Make a point of meeting a friend or two for
some Christmas cheer. Maybe arrange to meet your son or
daughter for a bite to eat, just the two of you. Smile lots for
it is the season to be merry.
Do some baking with the kids. Include your
family in everything. Play lots. Laugh lots.
Throw the guy with his hand out a bill
instead of change. Find a needy family and treat them to a
basket of good food and gifts. Phone a non-profit agency and
see if there is a family you might sponsor.
Give yourself a moment of peace and
tranquility. Reflect on your past year and don't forget to go
to church for it is the season of Christ. Amen.
