Christmas day is less than one week away. You may have noticed this particular phenomenon - every year, beginning in November and running through the end of the year, many people become filled with gratitude, and overcome with joy. It's no doubt the holiday season that brings this sense of celebration to life. It makes going to work more interesting and coming home even more fulfilling. That sense of celebration fills us with anticipation, enthusiasm and hope.
I have an idea. What if we promised ourselves to share this sense of joy throughout the year? What if we celebrated every day as if it were a special day? We would certainly experience optimism again and again. What a wonderful life it would be.
