Give Your Heart Away for Christmas

give-your-heart-away-for-christmas I love to read. My personal library is quite eclectic. I recently was browsing to purchase a new book when I came across a book called, “Everything I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten” by Robert Fulghum. The basic idea of the book was to follow the Golden Rule. Be nice to each other, say please and thank you, and treat others how you would want to be treated. I must say in theory I agree with the author. However, I think that I could write a similar book. I would call it; “Every Important Life Lesson I Learned in Hospice.”

Each of us has the same number of hours in a day. What we do with them is a personal choice. When I am working with an individual that is facing a life limiting illness they always seem to know how they want to spend their time. They want to be near those they love the most. They want to say things they need to say. They want to laugh and create memories. They want to leave nothing unsaid or undone.

The Power of Love

the-power-of-love LOVE. In its purest and simplest form is a wonderful thing. Love encompasses compassion, tolerance, endurance, support, faith, determination and more. It reaches beyond romance and embraces us in all aspects of life. It is love that assists us in making choices that are respectful and caring.

Love comes in different forms. It is shared between people. It can be found in nature, in the companionship of a pet, or love for an activity. We can show compassion and love to a stranger we may never meet again. Love happens whenever your heart is open.

Personally, I love getting hugs from my kids and I love kissing their cheeks. I love that my husband knows when to hold me and when to tell me he loves me. I love meeting new people, spending time with family and hanging out with friends. I love city lights at night, long road trips, warm summer evenings and snow in the winter. I love the taste of food, smell of perfume, seeing the big blue sky, listening to music and the feel of a hand holding mine. Love feels cozy, safe and good.
