Today I went Christmas shopping with my dad, brother, and I on a typical Saturday (Yes, we're crazy for going out the Saturday before Christmas haha...so maybe it wasn't a typical day) and before we left to come home, I ran in to get Starbucks for my dad and I. After returning with both hands full, and trying to open the car door, a nice lady comes up and opened the door for me to get in. I scrambled to say a thank you before sitting down...but I wanted to tell her how nice it was of her to do that. I think Christmas truly brings out the best in people, maybe it's just in my town or maybe this happens everywhere leading up to Christmas, but I've noticed it more and more as I've gotten older. People stop to help one another, pause to open doors, and share smiles more often to brighten someones day.
I think this is what Christmas is all about, to give of yourself and to be thankful for what you have.
Continue to brighten people's days and don't limit your kindness to just one holiday!
Merry Christmas and hope you all have a joyous one:)
