With Christmas less than two days away, it is time to move from denial to acceptance.
As we attempt to reconcile our intentions with our actual accomplishments, there is usually a shortfall in the “would’ve, could’ve, should’ve” column on the balance sheet.
One might choose to engage in a fruitless frantic frenzy in an attempt to salvage their “Currier and Ives” or “Dickensian” ideal of what the holiday should be.
My preference is to sit back, relax, say to myself; “it is what it is” and enjoy the holidays without regret or self-loathing!
Instead, I’ll celebrate with family and dear friends who won’t even have an inkling of what I have or have not done as far as my” window dressing” chores.
We’ll just share our love enjoy the company of each other.
And that is the most precious gift of all!
