It’s Christmas Day, and the world has paused to celebrate the importance of this special day. This year, I have enjoyed this season more than most. I feel very connected - and it started with a shopping trip. Most years I save shopping for Christmas Eve and always find myself rushing. Often I end up searching for items given to me on a list. I was never satisfied - so I changed the experience. Over the past few months, I dropped the list and focused attention on my loved one's needs. I opened my eyes and ears. How could I make their experience better? I’ve never enjoyed shopping so much - and that got me thinking. If everybody would focus on seeing and hearing what others need all year round - life would be so much better. That sounds like a great way to live.
