I am in the eye of the holiday storm 8)
The Christmas shopping is finished, and I have discovered all the gift mistakes I am going to. For those mistakes I have come up with solutions I can live with. I am done with the stores, so I no longer live in fear of listening to Johnny KMAthis.
Some cooking still has to happen, some gift wrapping still has to happen, and some loved ones are yet to be met. Some people (mostly strangers) have already received, and some are yet to receive, the gift of my unspoken restraint (this space intentionally left vague...).
I want to close this post with the prayer that I offer on behalf of all my loved ones and fellow-travellers, as often as I manage to remember it:
May God bless you and keep you, that you should not lack for what you need, and may He bless and keep you so that you should not lack for that which you give.
