One thing I’ve noticed this break is how sensitive I am towards people who are negative or insensitive. The truth is, I have too many friends who have a parent dying from cancer and they are the most positive people I know. Those proves to me that being negative or rude is no excuse! People may be in a situation worse than you, so put a smile on and be nice to one another.
The other thing I’ve noticed is who much people are not in the true holiday spirit that I’ve grown up with. Nobody has Christmas lights up. Nobody is truly thoughtful and generous to one another. With the economy not great, an increase in violence, these are the times we need to be even closer and MORE in the holiday spirit.
Smile. Be nice to one another. And stay positive.
