Merry Christmas; or, Happy Holidays…

Whether you say, "Merry Christmas," or, "Happy Holidays," the point is still the same; and the REAL reason for the season is JOY and LOVE.  It doesn’t matter which icon you use, or what you call a day, or the idea of a person; what matters is how you treat your fellow humans.

The saddest people in the world are those who use holidays to remind them of something unfortunate, those who focus on differences between people, or who spend all their time, money, and  energy feeding the machine of materialism — that machine, by the way, is NEVER satisfied.

So, don’t worry about others; love and bless them.  Don’t worry about what they’re doing, or what they believe; focus on what’s important to you.  And, most of all — "Be of good cheer."  You make the world a better place when you think thoughts that create happiness inside you. 

Best of all, you don’t need a holiday to do these things!  So, Happy Tuesday, to one and all!  May all your days be filled with love and joy — no matter where you are or what you believe.

 

P.S. — If you got your kids a bunch of toys for Christmas, remember whose fault the mess really is before you start yelling at your kids tomorrow, or next week, for having toys scattered all over the place.  Kids aren’t pre-programmed with storage places for every new gadget we give them…  Once the tree is gone, they have no point of reference for where the toys are supposed to go.  Take a minute to think about this, and you can keep the Christmas cheer until next year!
