Happy Holidays!
It's a weird one for me as I'm alone in a new city, but perspective never hurts. I went to the gym just now (totally empty on Christmas Eve evening) and as I was running on the treadmill, frustrated about how all the people who were with the ones they loved and I was alone, I saw through the window a homeless guy pushing his cart down the street in -25 Celsius, who probably would have been overjoyed to have the Christmas that I'm about to have.
Still not overly content with being alone on the day, but I feel better about it now than I did before.
I want to wish everyone a safe and enjoyable holiday season, no matter how you celebrate or not.
This is a smaller, pretty quiet group, but we still have each other. You are not alone and I tip my cap to each one of you. Thank you for being.... YOU!
