Remembering Why…
Why do we celebrate this season?
Is it for the birth of Christ?
Is it for presents?
Typically, it has been the coming together of family and friends, from near and far.
We gather, we eat, we play board or card games. We even have naps and enjoy the children’s excitement of their presents.
We come together to be with “each” other. To experience the presents of our energies. To catch up on all we have not been part of for the last year.
This year, coming together is so different.
How do we navigate this?
Will there be crying and sorrow for what we have taken for granted for so many, many years? You bet!
The missing will be the hardest. The empty spaces where people are not. For those living and those who have passed.
Remembering why…
We love.
We believe.
We come together.
