It Must Be Overwhelm

I really love to write and I can be inspired by just about anything. For me...life is one big metaphor and we are all connected. So...I must be in overwhelm because nothing is coming to me tonight. I think my muse has taken the night off and my head is filled with sugar plums doing the tango. I have simplified my holiday season by giving the one size fits all gift; do you want to know what it is? Love; in the form of kindness, words of support, hugs and joy. No shopping, gift wrapping, lines or parking lots mimicking bumper cars at an amusement park. So why do I feel so overwhelmed?

Maybe I am tapping into the holiday spirit permeating the air, emanating from the thousands of people racing against the clock to complete the race by December 25th. I do love the lights and holiday music being played, and the decorations in the stores and the Christmas wrap. I like the change of pace, seeing things that would look so out of place ten months out of the year. Christmas feels like a completion; a treat for an yearly job well done.

So I am choosing not to be overwhelmed but in awe. Feeling wonderment and fascination for the beauty, the joy, the giving but most of all the love that I feel everywhere I go. Happy Holidays to you who have taken the time to read my message.
