The holiday season is upon us! Many people, like me, wait all year for this time. Decorations and lights are everywhere, and time spent with loved ones is something to really treasure and value. Right on the heels of this holiday season is the new year, and many people find the need to make New Year’s resolutions in order to set the year up right. This is something valuable and worth it, if it’s done in the right way. However, many people simply let their New Year’s resolutions sit in their drawer, and don’t actually follow through with them more than a few weeks into the new year.
Be Thankful in Light of the Philippines
With Thanksgiving here, it’s important to reflect on everything we have to be grateful for in our lives. This is especially true in light of the current devastation the Philippines is experiencing due to Typhoon Haiyan. According to recent government estimates, Typhoon Haiyan has caused over 5,200 deaths, and injured almost 26,000 people. For those of us who haven’t been tragically affected by this natural disaster, we have even more things to be thankful for this holiday season.
