“In family life, love is the oil that eases friction, the cement that binds closer together, and the music that brings harmony.” Friedrich Nietzsche
The problem with Facebook is that you believe what you see.
The photo of the perfect table setting, golden brown turkey, and what appears to be well behaved children.
It’s not real.
Families, on the other hand, are very real – imperfections and all.
We survived Thanksgiving and are heading into Christmas, which has considerably more stress. Before you go down that rabbit hole, think more about how to have less stress.
If the person matters to you, and you can’t think of something they need (honestly, do any of us need anything?) then spend time with them.
My grandson is teaching me that a game of hide and seek is just about all a person needs to be happy.
Back to the imperfect families – despite miscommunications and mistakes you are still better off having them in your life than not.
Now back to decorating….
