Relax in the Quiet



In the flurry of activities at this time of year , it's easy to become overwhelmed, overtired, and overfed.

It is so important to remember to relax and provide peaceful moments.  While Christmas music brings much joy, I also like to bask  in silence now and then.

Sometimes, when  tired of scratching never ending items off the "to do" list, supper needs to be made, and fatigue sets in,  I head for the living room.  Once seated on the couch, taking some deep breaths , I  listen to the silence.

The decorated Christmas tree, in all its glory, stands nearby. Two old-fashioned dollies, flanked by brass deer candle holders on the lighted mantle, make me smile.



While sitting quietly, it's easier to think of the Baby Jesus and how He came to this crazy world for all of us.

After a few moments of peace and sweet silence, it's time to carry on in this most beautiful but busiest of seasons. 

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN HOLIDAY  FATIGUE HITS?
