"Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind." — Calvin Coolidge
This year's Christmas holidays were simply a beautiful and joyous culmination of love and connection with good reflection, set against the backgrounds of precious moments spent with families, filled with laughter and rich storytelling. This warmth of those moments brought so much love into the atmosphere while reminding us all of the love that bonds together. Engaging in festive traditions like decorating the tree brought out a sense of unity as we reminisced over past holidays but created new ones. Baking cookies not only filled our home with the wonderful aromas of cookies but also brought us closer together in the kitchen, creating a haven of joy.
The pleasure of thoughtful gifts, giving and receiving them, added magic to the season. Every gift that was exchanged was a symbol of our love and appreciation for each other, which reinforced our connections and gave us memories to last a lifetime. Ice skating and holiday movies were seasonal activities that enriched our experience, creating opportunities for laughter and shared enjoyment. These moments together helped to create a festive atmosphere that made the holidays feel truly special.
At the end of the year, I took time to reflect on what I had accomplished and what I would like to achieve in the coming year. This introspection was beneficial, as it helped me set intentions for personal growth. Volunteering and donating to those in need made the holiday season even more meaningful, reminding us of all of the importance of empathy and community. Special meals, music, and other cultural practices deepened connections as we cherished the holiday and made this an experience I will not forget.
“Christmas is forever, not for just one day. For loving, sharing, giving are not to put away.” – Norman Wesley Brooks
