Just because it’s the holiday season, doesn’t mean we automatically wake up in the morning feeling comfort and joy. Shopping, cooking, wrapping, sending gifts, traveling, and extra commitments can really put us in a tailspin. What’s your style when it comes to dealing with holiday stress?

Why do I love this card so much? Because Jack’s parents were brave enough to send it. What it shows is that life isn’t always perfection, despite what we read on Facebook. Some days we just want to cry. But, hopefully, this too will pass.

This image reminds us that everything can’t always be perfect. But if we seek out small slices of joy (gladness and gratitude) every day, we surely will find them.

Jack, thanks for showing us that no one promised merry and bright every day.
