This is THE day for slowing down time, for getting take-out for meals, for deciding that whatever got done is done & that it's fun to get presents or do special things after the arbitrary 12/25 date. That remembering what we're celebrating & the people we're doing it with are what matters. That if we feel a frazzle coming on, step back, take deep breaths & let it go. The the excuse "well, we have kids" is a poor excuse for losing a sense of balance. Christmas is NOT about presents, but presence.
Have a wonderful, whole & healthy day that mirrors for your friends, your family, your nearest & dearest that it comes without ribbons, it comes without tags, it comes without packages, boxes or bags. Christmas doesn't come from a store or requires long hours & frayed nerves - Christmas means a whole lot more! Today, celebrate THAT wondrous reality!
