<p>Daily Gratitude: Happy/Merry Christmas eve. I felt this was appropriate since the roads and stores are jam-packed with people doing their last minute Christmas shopping. Somewhere along the way, though, we seem to have lost sight of what Christmas is about. I&#8217;m not really religious. That adjective got stripped from me when I was rejected from medical school the first time. What was installed in place, however, was an extremely spiritual study and a deeper understanding of the complexities of life. Thus, this is not a post about the religious specifics of the day. I feel Christmas represents a birth &#8211; another chance for being and doing better. If you combine the idea of this birth and the concept of the New Year being another form of &#8220;newness&#8221;, you can see we have all sorts of possibilities to make changes in our lives. This is one reason I want to be brave and do the &#8220;Talking with Terrie&#8221; daily calls. What a great way for us to have more communion and grow with each other. This is the &#8220;gift&#8221; i can give to whomever desires it. It won&#8217;t be for everyone but maybe at least one person will benefit from it. What &#8220;gifts&#8221; of this sort are you giving this year? Take a minute and think back over the years and see if you can recall the best gifts you&#8217;ve ever received. I would imagine there are fewer material ones than there are substantive ones &#8211; expressions of love, offers to help, someone letting you know they care and are there for you, etc. After all, how many blenders can you use. Do you really &#8220;need&#8221; something…or would you rather have someone? I would rather have someone. Give the gift of love tomorrow!</p>
