Remember and Give Thanks

While we are struggling to find those last minute gifts, trinkets, and toys - 

let us remember there is a purpose - 

a reason that we celebrate this time of year.

Put aside some time to reflect upon the past year.

No matter your religion, give thanks.

Remember all the good that you have been blessed with this past year.

Give thanks for the blessings.

Remember those who are alone this time of year.

Make a conscious promise to spend more time with them.

Give thanks for their companionship.

Remember those who have made an impact in our lives.

What can you learn from them?

Give thanks for their influence.

Remember those who are no longer with us.

Keep their memories close to heart.

Give thanks for the time you had.

In memory of all the family members and friends 

who passed away this year, 

I honor your memory...

And give thanks...

Merry Christmas and Blessed Yule

Have a wonderful and safe holiday season.
