Which is another powerful reminder, there is no way that they can have that knowledge and furthermore, they aren’t supposed to. I think that was an important thing to bring up and that we should all keep that in mind throughout the holiday season. I really love the holidays and I just tell myself that there is no reason for me to not cherish the person that I am and not worry about what others may think about me. They have enough to think about with their own lives. My job as a friend, a sister, and a daughter is to love my family and express that to them. The good thing about choices is that we HAVE them. I choose to remove the stress from the season.
