How is your holiday season? Mine is lovely. I realized after my last post that I could do a better job of making my life feel like Christmas is nearing. So I've been reading Christmas stuff, listening to music of the holiday, surrounding myself with family [my dads sisters were in town this week--I love them!], and contemplating again the real meaning behind Christmas and what it really means to me.
Here are some quotes I read and liked that don't really have much to do with anything I've been talking about.
You Might Be Happy
Her mind is full of situations that will never happen. But they do
happen, in her mind, over and over again. All the worst case scenarios,
the best case scenarios and every single scenario in between. She
imagines unimaginable situations, conversations, happenings. In her mind
everything is possible, even the impossible. Sometimes her brain is so
busy calculating all the ‘what-ifs?’, it has no time to do anything
else. She has such trouble forgetting about all the things that could
possibly, or impossibly, go wrong. Almost compulsively she has hundreds
of variables in her head of how past situations could have gone
different. Some of them keep coming back, they haunt her, they taunt
her. She tries to oversee everything, not just this moment, but the next
one, and the next day, and the next week, and the next month. She tries
to figure out all the possibilities, so out of all of them she can try
to make the best one actually happen. One of the possibilities is,
stranger, that you let go. I know it is difficult, but you might be
happy.
