It's A Wonderful Life

The holidays use to make me crazy!! I would rush around and try to find gifts for people that I thought they would love, spend way too much money and stress that everything would be "perfect".

After many years of that I now realize there isn't any need in it. Yes, I still spend money on gifts (but not as much) and usually the reason for me going crazy is because of other people!! LOL!!!

No, really I got to thinking...how each one of us touch someone in one way or another. We don't realize it, it just happens. I think about the people I have met and how bits and pieces of them have affected me in good and bad ways.

I'm sure I have affected people in both of those ways also. Hopefully, more in good ways, though.

I am learning to appreciate those that come into my life whether it's good or bad. I need to learn from both experiences.

Like in the movie "It's a Wonderful Life". You never know who or how you will touch someone, even for a moment.

Just a thought...
