What happens to us as adults? As kids, we loose our minds with joy and anticipation of Christmas (or insert your holiday here)?

As adults we seem to only see the Season as expensive, having to visit THOSE relatives and it's generally overwhelming.

I do need to consciously take the controls and shut off the auto-pilot or I fear I get sucked in to the bad attitude too. Thanks for the nudge Roy Kelley this is a great reminder to have fun!

This Christmas is challenging to say the least.   It was always the happiest day for our family.  This year there is a weight I cannot seem to shake.  Trying to be more cheery but really not succeeding.

If it takes the holidays to adjust a bad attitude then one needs to look at how they are living and what they are doing and take some steps to change. Life is too short and we have one chance to make it right.
