This holiday is like no other any of us have experienced before. The uncertainty and worry people are experiencing has created a great amount of stress and anxiety. It has also been able to bring families closer together, some physically since they have been required to remain home more, work from home, or school from home. This has given many families challenges, but also the pleasures of really connecting and getting to know each other better. In our fast-paced society of work, school, extra-curricular activities, many families had been so busy they really did not get to connect. While we have been “connected” via social apps, etc. we have lost some of that true connection. So, if there has been any benefit to this social distancing, it has been to slow things down and give us opportunity to interact on a personal level with our closest family members.
Since this is the holiday season, I would like to focus this blog on being PRESENT, not presents, but presence.
