You Deserve the Happiness You are Creating for Others.

Hello friends! We have an entire 8 days left before the big day. How are you? Feeling overwhelmed? Have it all under control?

For those of us feeling a bit overwhelmed, let’s take a moment here to breathe. Inhale. Exhale. Maybe you need a few more of those. Whatever your level of angst this holiday season, let’s choose happy and relaxed today. Lets choose peace. Let’s even choose it until the new year. What is causing your stress? Can you let it go? Is it your personal expectation or do those expectations belong to others? Are those expectations worth losing your joy during the most joyful time of the year?

Here’s a goal for today: Let three things go. Poof. Gone. Take three things from your to-do list and throw them away right now. Sounds scary? Do it anyway. Do it and smile a little rebellious smile. Today is for you. Today will only last another 14 hours. Enjoy it. Have coffee with an old friend. Call someone from a different stage in life and ask them a question. Give yourself a decadent treat. Above all, YOU deserve the happiness you are creating for others.
