Merry Christmas with the Paulsens!

I am not a big fan of Christmas. I feel it is way too commercialized and causes more anxiety and stress than there needs to be in anyone's life for just one day. Too many expectations that are never met and just too much "stuff". And that's just what Christmas is - it's just another day. But it's a day to just enjoy the company of family and loved ones. Be thankful for what you have and not what you "need" to acquire. Be thankful for every small blessing you've experienced throughout the year. And concentrate on paying it forward. Be aware of others that don't have the good fortune you have and don't be afraid to help! And most of all, appreciate family - it is the best thing a person can have!
