Your Place at the Table

I’m really feeling the effects of this year’s late Thanksgiving. People are skipping right over this holiday and they are already getting Christmas trees. Even my kids have been pleading for me to get our tree now - sharing some statistic that claims, “Those who get their Christmas trees early are happier people.” Well, I prefer to be unhappy thank you very much. I will wait until Black Friday.

So many of us struggle to write in a card when we want to let someone know that we’re thinking of them. Maybe we want to mark an occasion, soothe a sadness, congratulate, encourage etc. Because I am someone who talks a lot, this isn’t a problem for me. When I write to people, I just have a one way conversation. However, as easy as it is for me, I do know that the struggle to write in a card is REAL.
