Embrace the Holiday Spirit

Now that the holidays are here, one way for many of us to get into the holiday spirit is to pass along some cheer to others. How? Start each day by coming up with one creative way of giving and adding value to other people’s lives.

It could be as simple as giving a motorist an opening to get into a crowded lane, taking the lead to open a door for someone who appears to have their hands full, or letting a shopper with only a few items go ahead of you in the grocery line. Another simple, but meaningful, idea is to write your partner, spouse, parent, or child a short note letting them know how much you love and appreciate them!

We all know the holidays is a time for giving, but what really counts is the giving of yourself! Taking the time to consider the many ways you can add value to others’ lives, and then actually doing it! Doing these things cost you nothing but it will fill the atmosphere with joy and leave you with a sense of fulfillment!  

Now that's one way to get into the holiday spirit!

May you all have a very Happy Thanksgiving!
