All around I am watching the holiday decorations appear on streets, in stores and even through the windows of many homes. On social media I see many of my friends already have their Christmas tree shining in their living room. It's lovely and gets me excited for the season!
I'm still looking at fall foliage - both outside and inside my windows. A little part of me feels panicked that I'm somehow behind and missing an invisible deadline!
Maybe you feel the same way about something. It seems like everyone else has beat you to the goal. Is it even worth the effort when it all feels like a game of catch-up?
Yes! Enjoy this moment just as it is - for me, that means a harvest themed Thanksgiving with lots of gravy. I don't know what it means for you, but you know exactly what you need to shift your focus from scarcity to gratefulness.
I've put up a page with articles on holiday issues - we have a lot of them in modern family life. I hope your season is filled with joy!
