Is anyone else feeling the push and crunch of Christmas approaching? The lists get longer, the days feel shorter, and suddenly there is pressure everywhere to do more, buy more, be more. If you are feeling it, you are not alone, and it is okay to pause, breathe, and remind yourself that we will make it through this season just like we always do. Christmas is not a performance or a checklist, it is a feeling, a meaning you carry in your heart. When you know what Christmas truly means to you, whether it is love, faith, family, memories, or simply peace, everything else is just the wrapping. And wrapping can be simple.
