There was a time, long ago, when we knew all about Christmas. We were small; we held it right in our hearts. We have to work at it to find Christmas now, but it’s worth looking for. – Essayist Murr Brewster
The holidays can be a tricky time for some. It might take mindfully decelerating, tuning in, and practicing a little Joy-spotting.
Maybe it’s a tiny present moment, sneaking up in a surprise yet to come, or waiting to be dusted off in a favorite memory of the past. You don’t want to miss it!
Rediscovering and savoring joy and humor right now may help provide hope and optimism for the future and certainly a new memory for next year.
So, this season, get your “goof” on—whether you’re flying solo, laughing with family, surrounded by friends, or diving into a merry group adventure.
However you find it, here’s wishing you a holiday brimming with joy, play, rest, reflection, and a little extra sparkle of hope.
