Whether you actually celebrate holidays in November and December or simply try to get through the time unscathed, certainly everyone has memories of past holiday seasons. Who among us would not have done something differently in those past seasons had we fully realized at the time that we'd be reliving those memories year after year after year? For me, this will be a year of holding onto those memories, cherishing some, regretting others. My husband died this fall, so the memories will at times seem to be all I have. I know that's not true, but it will seem so.
My wish for all is that you find and acknowledge what is yours to celebrate. Appreciate what is good, those you love and who love you, be kind, be patient, be forgiving, go out of your way to be nice. You'll be rewarded with wonderful memories.
