Be Good to Your Self
The holidays are here! Are you ready? Is your tree up? Lights on the house? Are your cards and packages mailed? Have you finished your shopping? You didn't forget anyone, did you? Did you get a new dress for the holiday party or do you think you can get away with wearing last year's? Maybe if you change up your jewelry and shoes... Are the cookies baked? Do they look exactly like the ones on Pinterest? Is your house ready for guests? What about that one relative who is allergic to cats or that one friend who can only eat gluten-free? HAVE YOU THOUGHT OF EVERYTHING?!
Stop. Just stop.
Yes, the holidays are here. You don't have to fit the mold of a Publix commercial or Southern Living Magazine. Your house is fine. Last year's dress is perfect. Or if you'd really rather stay home and binge Netflix with your cats, do that instead. People gather together because they want to be with each other. They want to be with YOU. The best gift you can give your loved ones is your own happiness. Yes, really.
Relax.
Don't forget to treat yourself. Be it a trip to Victoria's Secret or taking a long bubble bath with a trashy novel, take the time to be good to your self. You are a wonderful creature full of light and joy and that's why people want to share their holidays with you.
Take a deep breath. And tell that gluten-free person to get over it.
