Christmas by the Fire

‘Tis the season to be… stressed! Why do we allow the holidays to become a time of frantic shopping, pressure and overblown expectations?

We try to do it all: visit every friend and family member, turn out homemade pies and cookies (even if we haven’t baked since last Christmas), and decorate, shop and spend like we’re being judged by a panel of home decorating experts.

Let’s not aim for perfection this year: the perfect gift, the perfect tree, the perfect party. What would happen if instead, we simply spent time with our family—or on our own? Just read all the greeting cards or emails aloud, rather than feel guilty about not having sent out yours.  Make plans to spend time with your friends in February, when we all have cabin fever. Give a gift of time and attention to your parents or children, rather than an expensive gadget.

More time to spend Christmas by the Fire, with your loved ones by your side or in your heart. That’s the best gift of all.
