The holidays should be a time of joy, right?
Not always. Not for many of those alone, or with personal and/or
unresolved
family issues. Then the holidays can become a time of stress, anxiety,
dread or sadness. Learn to feed your soul during this time of year - read
"Surviving the Holidays: Body, Mind and Spirit -
Strategies" by Jessica Setnick, MS, RD/LD.
Sad? Depressed? Life got you down?
Here's a handful of resources from Third Age: "Guide
to Depression".
A quote forwarded by Jackie Metcalf:
"Know the true value of time; snatch, seize, and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness; no laziness; no procrastination; never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
---Lord Chesterfield

Metcalf sends us a quote: "Like I said, there are friends --- And there are FRIENDS.
People you pal with -- And the ones you die for. Each carries its own set of obligations.
And each person has to decide what they are & how best to carry 'em out."
----Wolverine
Remember that Bob Dylan song, "The Times
They Are A-Changin'"? Never more true than recent changes and those
we expect (or fear) in the coming weeks and months. This can scarcely help
but cause stress. See some great "21 Ways to Relieve Internal Stress"
By Garrett J. Braunreiter at Third Age.
