December! Oh December how you have come so quickly. Seeing busy streets, music, and the lights. Never ending sweets for everyones tummy’s, everyone helping one another. Events all over the place, Business’s as busy as the shoppers. Looking for the special gift for love ones, and something different. Time for family to come together once more, and to shine. Overall the feeling is happy, for some it might not be so, for most it is good time.
So what makes Decemeber so different? Is it Santa? Snowmen? Lights everywhere? Could it be the candies/cookies that everyone seems to have? Or is it something more? Or something less?
Everyone knows its to celebrate jesus. I believe it serves another great purpose I only see now. This other purpose is one over looked sometimes. It’s to bring people together, friends, and family. Even if we are so busy, its important to make family/ friends important this time of year. I am thankful I saw most of the family I needed to see….. There were only few did not get to see.
For at any moment, it could be the last year to be with them. No matter the age its important to take every moment that you have to see them, to have memories. For thats whats important. Thats what last. Not toys, candies, cookies, lights, or even neat presents. Family truly does matter more. My thoughts are with those who are having hard time. Hope that only next Christmas or new years they have better one. Holidays are time to share, to be there for one another.
Really must say I am thankful for Christmas, which I have never said before. Thankful to see those I don’t see all the time, only hope to have more days like the holidays to see them.
So Happy New year! Make every day count, thats what I will be working on this year. To see people who don’t get to see normally, to make every day matter just little more then last year. For thats what matters to me.
