Hello friend,
Exams are finally over, holiday jingles can be heard everywhere, and the countdown to the new year has begun. Some of us are already breaking out into a cold sweat as we think about how many holiday gatherings we have to attend while others are baking treats at supersonic speed for those parties at this very moment.
For some, the holidays are a time to wind down and reconnect with family and friends, take on extra hours at the holiday job and local volunteer service center, or reminiscence the memories of the past, future, and lost loved ones. Many people experience the holidays in different ways, and it can make one feel extreme happiness or unbearable loneliness.
As we all go about our merry, or not-so-merry ways, take the time to high-five yourself for what you've become and what you're planning on becoming. Life is not an easy path to walk. Remember to congratulate those around you too!
Happy holidays.
