The holidays are rough when we are “in transition.” I wish I had a magic wand to make the challenges go away. I wish each of our children and grandchildren the gifts that they desire. I wish each of us the meals that fill the stomach and the heart. I wish each of us homes that are warm, meaningful and secure both physically and financially. I wish each of us a comfortable bank account. I wish each of us to be surrounded by loved ones and friends. I wish each of us “enough” of what we need and desire.
There are many articles, in print and on line, filled with techniques on how to manage this season. The how I write about is not about techniques; it is an intrinsic quality that gives us insight and strength. And it will be different for each of us. We will find it in the way we have managed other tribulations. We human beings are pretty amazing. None of us have gotten to this place in life without overcoming obstacles. I suggest that you list prior obstacles and write down, tell a friend, or let me know what it is in you that brought about prior successes. Get in touch with that feeling of strength and power and have it help carry you through the holidays and the transition.
