Hello everyone: One thing which helps me to get over Christmas blues if I have them, (one of my brothers' b'day is Christmas Day, he died when I was a teenager), is remember what the day really means. Some in the forum may not be of the same religious faith, I respect that, I try to focus on the birth of Christ and the meaning of Christmas. One of my favourite prayers is from St. Francis of Assisi:
The Peace Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, Make me an instrument
of your peace. Where there is hatred,
let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
Divine Master, grant that I may
not so much seek to be consoled as
to console; to be understood as to
understand; to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born
to eternal life. Amen
A very MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone.
Your friend, Sunny
and think about giving up that habit!
