How did it get here so fast? Where did the year go?
And with that comes, we’re going to blink and it’s going to be January!
It’s hard to believe that it’s December already and all I keep thinking is how quickly the next few weeks are going to fly by. Seems so different than childhood when it felt like Christmas Day would never arrive, like it took all year for time to pass on just Christmas Eve.
The Christmas season– Advent– is one of waiting, of listening to what’s inside us, of the end of the year when we reflect back on not only where we’ve been, but where we want to go. All this as we await the magic of Christmas Eve and the joy and peace of Christmas Day.
While it’s a challenge during this time when we’re pulled in all sorts of directions for different reasons, take the time to think about what it means to you, what’s inside of you that you’ve been pushing aside or ignoring. As we come to the end of another year, it’s the perfect opportunity to seize what we don’t want to miss in the future.
And have a few cookies, too.
