This time of year brings with it such a wide array of emotions – anticipation, joy and hope and peace on earth and goodwill towards men… But it also can be a very painful time for some of us – bringing up feelings of sadness, anxiety and stress, feelings of fear and loss and disappointment, unmet expectations – all underscored by overwhelm and exhaustion.
This can result in great cynicism and disdain for Christmastime due to commercialism, self-centeredness and a lack of reflection on the true meaning of the season.
Today we take a few minutes of mindfulness to reflect on The Christmas Story as told on the book of Luke.
Merry Christmas!
