Happy Holidays

There's something about Christmas that is bittersweet.  While it's an absolute joy to celebrate with my family and loved ones, I find an inherent sadness, perhaps tears of joy would best describe this feeling, during this season.  The act of giving, the warmth of the setting, the food being shared-- it's all very wonderful. However, I really wish we could all stop and do this more often instead of reserving so much for just a few special days out of the year.  Perhaps this will be a New Year's resolution of mine. 

Anyway. Happy Holidays, everyone!  I'd like to say thanks for the support, the discussion and the feedback this year!

  1. Merry Christmas to you! I often wish it was just more than these few days. I don't know. I get an extra bounce in my step sometimes during the holidays that I wish I had all year long.

  3. Merry Christmas, Beth. I agree with you about this time of year - I wish more people we inclined to celebrate family and giving more than once a year.
