Hello Guys and Gals!
With Christmas closing in fast, I ask each one of you to give something to those you love that really matters! I ask you to give yourself!
Too often, we find that we are under pressure to prove our love to our loved ones with the pocketbook. We have to show our love with what we spend on them. That is the message that Society teaches us today! I say we should send a different message. I think we should give something, anything, or ourselves to make a meaningful gift that will be remembered long after that new piece of technology is dust and ashes!
So what can you give? Well ask yourself this question: what do you do well? Think about that for a minute! Figure out what you do that you look upon and conclude that you do this thing well. Do you make cards? Do you work with wood? Do you sing? Do you write poetry? Do you recite poetry? Do you work well? Figure it out! It will be different for each and every one of you. So figure it out and then think about how you can make that thing you do a gift for others. Then use your effort and work to give that as a gift to those you love this year!
I promise you this: if you give of yourself to those you love, it will mean more to them in the years to come than any other present you can buy them this year!
Another thing I ask you to do: spend time with those you love! Get together and watch a movie. Cook a meal... together. Bake some cookies or ornaments. Go fishing or hunting. Build a campfire and have a conversation about anything. Play a game, not a video game but a board game. Go do something, anything, to spend time with those you love this year! The relationship you have with people is far more important than anything that comes from the pocketbook!
So give something of yourself and spend some time with those you love this Christmas!
God bless you all this day!
