This admonition appears on Sun Dials a lot and it is such
sage advice. It never pays to obsess over tragedy although
we can learn from it. We weave the design of the fabric
of our lives by coping with what comes along. It is when
we obsess over tragedy instead getting over it that it
defeats us.

I am planning to really cherish my loved ones this Christmas
and to live in the moment. I have made a big effort with
their Christmas gifts which has made the season more pleasurable for me. My tree is pretty, the mantle is draped
with greenery and the candles are burning. (Battery operated
of course).

Although I am not sentimental, my heart is full of Christmas
Spirit and good will towards all.
