I Just Like To Smile, Smiling's My Favorite
Nothing is better than the Holiday Season. It is a great time of year where everyone is in a great mood! I get so excited when the first snow fall hits. There is also something special about picking out a christmas gift for the special people in your life. When you find the right gift, there is nothing more rewarding than watching their face as they open it.
More importantly than that, the holidays are a great time to be with your family. The older you get the more christmas means to you. It's not about the gifts you receive anymore as much as it is about who you spend the time with. That is the spirit experienced throughout this season, and it warms my heart to think about it.
This past thanksgiving I really realized the meaning of the holiday season. My aunt has been in the hospital for a couple weeks since she had a stroke. She was devastated knowing she would be missing out on our thanksgiving meal, but more importantly that she wouldn't be able to spend time with the family. It was amazing to see how everyone went out of their way to make her feel more loved than ever by taking shifts to go visit her in the hospital throughout the day. I don't believe she was alone much at all this thanksgiving and that is exactly the way it should be.
This season it is important to make sure you are there for your family, friends and loved ones. Make sure you appreciate the smaller things in life and celebrate each other. The holiday season has always been one of my favorites, and it still is. The only difference is that I now appreciate it for different reasons than I used to.
