Ho, ho, hold on…you don’t like Christmas? I understand this season can be painful for some. It can be a season where depression and suicide rates are on the increase. Or perhaps, as you get older the events of Christmas don’t match the warm, sentimental memories you carry for the season. Today, I want to offer you a message of kindness and hope.
YOU CAN’T SLOW THE CLOCK
The holiday season is filled with frenetic energy and pressure. You are faced with doing the right thing plus fulfilling obligations to be at all of the holiday social engagements. The reality is you can’t slow the clock. But you can positively influence the movement of your soul as it responds to the movement of time. I want to offer you a couple of recommendations to help make the season a little bit easier to manage.
BE KIND AND GIVE YOURSELF MERCY
This season offer the gift of kindness to those around you. Everyone around you is in a great battle. I also would like to ask you to offer yourself the gift of mercy. You don’t need to do it perfectly, but I'm pretty confident you can do it. When you offer yourself the gift of mercy, only then are you able and free enough to give unto others the gift of kindness. Be kind to them and to yourself this holiday season.
Until next time, lead well!
