It’s easy to get caught up in the joyfulness of the season. The lights, the cheer, the music, the gifts, the shopping, the Damned Warm Cider and let’s not forget the cookies. Never forget the cookies! But there are many who are suffering. There are those for whom the holidays only serve to bring to light all that is missing in their lives. The holiday season is heartbreaking for some.
Let us all remember to include a random act of kindness during this special time. I encourage you to reach out and touch someone. Visit the lonely. Feed the homeless. Do something that touches your heart but more importantly, someone else's. I guarantee that your holiday will be richer for it.
I know it's early but allow me to be among the first to wish you and yours a blessed holiday season.
Hugs,
Smart Mouth Broad

Beautiful words! Share the light, for that's what Christmas is all about:"Light a candle"...

I'm so stressed during this time of year but I'm also so blessed and can't imagine what some people have to deal with that are down and out. I DO try to do for others but not just during this time of year.....but a little more than usual during this time. Thanks for the reminder and Merry Christmas to you and yours too. I love ya a bunch!!!!
Blessings to you too, now and through the coming years.
