Merry Christmas, happy holidays! Whatever you celebrate, do it large this year, even if your gathering is small or not at all. We’ve almost put 2020 behind us and that alone is reason for joy and hope and unabashed revelry. It has been a traumatic and challenging year (to say the least), but in spite of the hardships, the loss for many, and the general craziness and uncertainty, there is still so much to be thankful for: friends, family, memories, kindness, patience, generosity, and love. Out of darkness, let light shine. That is the true spirit of this season which culminates in a new year. May that light shine in all of your homes and hearts. Discover or rediscover what is truly meaningful and carry it with you always. Wishing you peace and happiness and a very merry Christmas.
