The Holidays are truly a time for reflection. The more grateful we feel about what we have in our lives the more we have to give ourselves to others. An act of kindness, especially during the holiday season, will long be remembered than the gift you bought at the store. Acts of kindness can’t be bought in a store and require that one person gives of themselves, unconditionally, to another. When giving of yourself, there is no room for sadness or feelings of defeat, there is an overwhelming sense of empowerment that you have actually made a difference in the world by one simple act of kindness and giving. The gratitude you will feel will come in a warm and grateful smile, a thank you, a hug, a nod a knowing that you made a difference in someone else’s life as well as your own.
That is what truly matters during the holiday season and helps you stay focused on all the good stuff in life.
Happy Holidays!
