I wonder how many people don't see many of their families until the holidays.
300+ days of not seeing and possibly speaking with family, then one day or maybe two they all get together. Strangers at best trying to find out all the scoop of one another in a short time, in the sake of the holiday cheer.
Imagine keeping in touch much more often than that.....
I wonder how many people dread seeing their family during the holidays.
300+ days of ignoring certain family members because of drama, dislikes, disagreements and/or just because you have better things to do. Then you show up and find yourself forcing a one day or maybe two of a family relationship. Just to dread it for 300+ days again.
Imagine just accepting someone as they are knowing that everyone has a reason for being who they are.
I wonder how many people for selfish reasons prefer to be with friends or even strangers at a party, rather then be with family.
300+ days of seeing friends, meeting people and yet still on the holiday you rather be with them then give up some time for family.
Imagine getting them all together. Just throwing your own party and inviting them all. Would it be fun?
I wonder how many people are alone in the holidays. Weeping for the lost ones, the forgotten ones and themselves.
300+ days of loneliness compounded on a day or maybe two where everywhere you turn you see it's time for togetherness.
Imagine how that person would feel being invited to spend a day or maybe two among company.
I wonder how many people will read this and agree and yet still do the same.
Imagine if for this holiday season we would extend ourselves, change our routine and just be...
Oh the possibilities of it carrying for 300+ days more.
