There’s always that question, “How did you get through this?” Now, the ‘this’ in your life can or could be the loss of a loved one. Or you lost a friend. Or the words cancer. Or the phrase divorce crept into your life. Or the fact your family might not be the reflection of perfection that jumps at you from the posts and photos portrayed on Facebook or in other areas. The conflict of wishing for a great life shoots at you like a star blazing across your heart. And, as you know, pain and sorrow and hurting days land like a sleigh of dread and you wish Christmas was over.
At Christmas, you may be alone. Or feel alone. Or long for laughter. Or eggnog. Or cuddles. Or presents. Or someone who is gone.
Or maybe you belong to a family that surrounds themselves with hope, joy, and plenty of I love you moments. But not everyone has such days because life is harder than we wish.
