This Season of Joy
This is my favorite time of year. I truly appreciate the beauty of the season — the melodies, the twinkling lights, and especially the delicious food. Just give me a hint of a reason, and I’m willing to celebrate the season wholeheartedly!
Thanksgiving: A Time for Gratitude
I have a particular fondness for Thanksgiving. At its core, this holiday embodies gratitude and generosity. It’s a celebration open to everyone, a time to acknowledge the positives in our lives and come together to express our thanks. Add some green bean casserole and a glass of Chardonnay, and that really sets the stage! However, what makes Thanksgiving most precious to me is the gathering of my loved ones, as we all step away from our busy routines to simply “Be.”
A Message of Hope
<pSeveral years ago, Paul McCartney was asked about the inspiration for his song, "Let It Be." He shared that his late mother, Mary, appeared to him in a dream, softly offering those words of comfort, hope, and peace. A straightforward yet deeply impactful message.
Embracing the Moment
The holiday season encourages us to pause our fast-paced lives and simply Be. I know it’s not easy to release our daily pressures, and there’s always a lengthy to-do list. However, when we reflect on the abundance we have in our children, families, and friends, we realize that the other tasks can wait.
Inspiration for the Season
This issue of GLF is packed with advice, ideas, and inspiration designed to help us bask in the joy of the season, craft cherished memories, and contemplate the legacy we’ll ultimately leave behind.
