The holiday season is upon us. This has been an interesting year. I started an additional volunteer project and have been working with more children. The kids that I work with are anywhere from 8-16 years old. A child's perspective really is a lot less jaded than that of most adults. While stress is always a factor in the holiday season, it really is a cool thing to listen to what children have to say about life, hopes, and dreams. Sometimes you don't realize how jaded you may have become as an adult. It kind of sneaks up on you throughout the years.
There are so many ways to cope with holiday stress. I won't go into details in this column. I would just mention that it is important to be self-aware, introspective, and open to change. I know I've gotten a bit more jaded in the last few years. I'm glad that the kids were around to help me realize it.
Happy Holidays!
See ya.
