A New View<br />

What Are You Giving This Year<br />

By Eileen Crawford, MS, LMHC<br />

There is a reas<strong>on</strong> so many people love this time of year. It is not just<br />

the lights, music and parties. It is because we do something assigned<br />

to the holiday seas<strong>on</strong>. We give–openly and without reservati<strong>on</strong>.<br />

We can get so caught up in the spirit of giving that we shower love<br />

not just <strong>on</strong> family and friends, but scout leaders, teachers, even our<br />

dog walkers. And it makes us feel good. While opening a gift given<br />

to you can bring a smile, watching some<strong>on</strong>e you love gasp with joy<br />

when they open yours can take your breath away. The simple act of<br />

giving a piece of yourself to some<strong>on</strong>e else is what love is all about.<br />

Once we have stripped our “giving shelves” bare in <str<strong>on</strong>g>Dec</str<strong>on</strong>g>ember,<br />

come January, sometimes our heart closes for business. We become<br />

too busy or stressed to give much more. Home-made cookies and<br />

sentimental cards are last m<strong>on</strong>th's news; sometimes I can't give<br />

even a smile, let al<strong>on</strong>e a parking space.<br />

When holiday joy leads to the New Year<br />

blues, is it because I allotted just <strong>on</strong>e m<strong>on</strong>th<br />

of the year to be about some<strong>on</strong>e else, and now the other eleven<br />

are focused <strong>on</strong> me and mine<br />

I have a friend who sends nothing at Christmas, but come<br />

Valentine’s Day, you might find <strong>on</strong>e of her meticulously-crafted<br />

cards in your mailbox. She sends them to every<strong>on</strong>e <strong>on</strong> her list as her<br />

way of spreading love throughout the year. She’s got the right idea.<br />

What if each of us decided to feel the joy of giving during not just<br />

<strong>on</strong>e m<strong>on</strong>th, but every m<strong>on</strong>th of the year A wave, a helping hand,<br />

a small act of kindness; giving what you have to ease the burden<br />

of some<strong>on</strong>e else. Now that’s worth celebrating.<br />

Happy Holidays<br />
