It's that time...

This is one of those times in the year when we stop and think about other people. People near and far. People we know well and see often, some who are distant in miles but not heart. And even strangers capture our attention. Take time for a couple deep-cleansing breaths as you consider… giving. Give with joy and love from your heart. Be giddy as you find that perfect gift for someone. Take a deep-cleansing breath, stand up straight and tall and relish the conversations as you mingle at one gathering, then the next. Take a deep-cleansing breath as you jot a note to someone “it’s been too-long” since seeing. Slow down and breathe so as to give from your heart and not the rampant pressure of the world. Remember those who have drifted from your daily radar but still have a place in your heart. We have close, day-to-day friends. We have friends we connect with once in awhile. And still others, when, despite all technology, this is the season we remember with a special message. This is it. This is that time of year when loving and giving abounds. We put money in red kettles. We hang mittens on trees in banks and churches. Purchase unwrapped toys to put in big collection boxes. We cook and bake and come together – to decorate, sing, laugh, celebrate. More than other days of the year.  Yes, this is it. Loving. Giving. Sharing. Rejoicing. Helping. Remembering. One another.  Time to remember and to love one another.
