I’ll confess something. I never liked Christmas 😞. I even used to say “I hate Christmas,” like the Grinch. Maybe I just didn’t understand it, and that made me feel alone during this time, even though I never actually was.
I think it’s a very common feeling in our society, unfortunately. When you hate something it’s because it creates resistance and, in some way, it matters to you. Deep down it affects you somehow. Maybe because of circumstances or memories, some kind of emotional pain gets stirred up without you realizing it. Christmas itself ends up becoming a limiting belief and you reject it.
Probably living in Ireland makes me experience things with a different intensity. And surely, in this new stage of my life, I flow so much more. The truth is, the sweets and traditions matter less. I’m really enjoying this holiday season and I’m sharing some carols 🎵 with family. It’s a feeling of love and togetherness.
Christmas can be something wonderful if you want it to be. A time when feelings of love, friendship, and family are awakened. Society is kinder and more caring. But here’s a thought: why limit something like this to just one moment of the year? We leave Christmas to express our wishes, feelings, and emotions. We leave Christmas to get closer and break the distance with many people we never see but feel. We leave Christmas to laugh. We leave Christmas to help others. We leave Christmas to feel.
Imagine if every day of our lives was like that. Imagine feeling that strength every day. Imagine being able to release all those feelings and express them always, without fear 😍
If you like the idea… stop imagining. Merry Christmas ❤️
