It’s not too early to consider the real power of Family and Friends for this Holiday Season
Hard to believe it’s already November. The holiday season will soon be on us starting with Thanksgiving (in the US), and then with the hustle-bustle to get to the next party or buy the gifts that you know people are looking for. Given the very recent events in my life, I am reminded the power of family and friends. Holidays are so much more than the parties and gifts – while these are nice representations of the feelings we have for people, there is a deeper meaning that I encourage you to find for yourself.
For me, it’s remembering to say “I Love You” to the people who matter most to me. It’s giving a nice hug, and letting it linger for the true emotion of the embrace to penetrate our often thick exterior. It’s gazing into the eyes to indeed look at another person’s soul. This is how I will focus my energy this holiday season, starting right now, and maybe carrying on well beyond New Year’s Eve.
Love to you,
Pete Winiarski
