In times like this, the joyful holiday season, when we should all be rejoicing in the Spirit of the season, there is soooo much gloom going on. Why is that? My sister just had surgery, my son and his family are going through very difficult financial troubles, my daughter just miscarried, and will be separated from her husband for 6 months due to the military. Now I know I have many, many things to be thankful for, and dont get me wrong. I am. I just want to know why it all has to happen all at once. And that isnt even the tip of the iceburg. But you know what? I am not letting that all get me down. The Spirit of Christmas is WAAAAY bigger than any of that. It may put a damper on things, but as long as we have each other, we are all good. I have much to thank for God for and many blessings. But it does give you thoughts to ponder.....I hope and pray that you all have many things to be grateful for this season. If not....take a look around you, and you will see so many with less. Let the Spirit of the Season shine through you no matter what your circumstances. k? have a good one.....
