Tis the Season

Tis the Season

Christmas is right around the corner. People are stressed out, tensions are running high. I work in customer service, so I can tell you this first hand. People are yelling at one another, tempers are short. Misunderstandings turn into shouting matches, simple interactions become incidents. In the season of peace and love, often times it proves to be anything but.

If you find yourself stressed out, take a moment. Relax. Breathe. Count to ten. Go have a moment to yourself. Drink a cup of hot chocolate. Whatever it will take to get you in a peaceful mindset, do it. Then interact with the world. You’ll be glad you did.

Try to keep the meaning of the season in your head if not in your heart-it’s a season of love.
