  • Happy early birthday 🎉 (or unbirthday, as you please)! Nothing wrong with not believing, but loving the holidays, any of them. I personally really love classical, so Handle’s Messiah (the whole thing) brings me great joy. I really hope your birthday brings blessings, miracles, magic or incredibly beautiful, incredible things your way, pick and choose the words you prefer, leave the rest. Your post made my very long day!



  • Before this was a thing in stores, elderly family members would buy things on sale so year for holiday and other special occasion gifts, because resources were limited. And there’s nothing wrong with being wise, even if one has sufficient resources. There’s a difference between that and stinginess/greed, and the line is thin and can easily become blurred. If I have what I need and operate from, hmm a lack mindset (”I lack personal operable transportation, poor me!), it is easy to fall into stinginess. When I operate from abundance mindset (”Good neighbors/friends/family go a bit out of their way, to make sure I can get to appointments and do other necessary errands! I’m so fortunate!" And compensate with gas money, chores, small but meaningful gifts if the others are declined or money is tighter), I can be wise and keep in my lane because the lines are seen more clearly.
