The BIG picture is so BIG that it often eludes us because
rather than observing it from a distance, we actually live smack dab in
it. It is like the Truman Show
where Jim Carrey, who plays Truman, is in this world that he thinks is real,
yet his world has been fashioned for him.
Because he lives in this fabricated world, which intentionally creates
tunnel vision for him, he cannot see outside of the frame of his small picture
into the big picture of reality…until one day…he does.
We don’t live in a TV show yet the reality is that our lives
too tend to become very narrowly focused especially during the pressure of the
holiday season. When this tunnel vision sets in, we lose sight of the BIG
picture and when we lose sight of the big picture it steals our joy.
The BIG picture...
- GIVE because you want to not because you have to and feel the JOY.
- The ENCHANTMENT of the holiday season is created by each person not by marketing attempts from retail establishments ~ make it special YOUR way…and let go of everyone else’s way!
- RELATIONSHIPS are super-charged as emotions flare under the ignition of pressure during the holidays…ONLY if you let it happen. Choose to be LOVE and watch the gifts (and I don’t mean the ones wrapped under the tree) you get in return!
- LOVED ONES that are gone or away are in your heart today and tomorrow and during the holidays just like every other day. Allow them to celebrate the holidays with you through your memories and love!
- PEACE and LOVE and JOY are rightfully yours EVERY day ~ CLAIM them!
