I have gotten accustomed to being alone on holidays. To me they are just days like any others except I don't work usually. At Christmas too much emphasis is placed on giving gifts. I know this is not a new observation. What I enjoy more is giving gifts when they are not expected. I prefer doing things for people out of love instead out of a sense of obligation. The holiday season can be stressful for those of us who do not have money to buy gifts and lonely for people who not have anyone with whom to celebrate. I think it would be much better to show love throughout the year. We become too busy with the things of life throughout the year and forget to let the people who matter in our lives know how much they mean to us. I am guilty of this at times. Reaching out to others in love to others in our lives helps us too. I tend to forget that people might want to hear from me. I tell others that we are all important, but I sometimes forget that I too have something to give others. I tend to be shy about contact others. I need to change this. I have a tendency to judge myself by society's standards and focusing on the things I have not accomplished. I need to stop thinking of myself as not good enough, because I am good enough. I will find the help I need to get out of my current situation. I will make a difference in this world.
Much love to all.
