Happy Holidays and some more thoughts:

During this hectic time of the year we all get very overwhelmed with holiday shopping, parties and commitments. In the middle of all the mess I try to remember all the events that have taken place during the year. I definitely have a lot to be grateful.

1. My family and friends
2. My health
3. My job
4. My readers
5. My freedoms

While remembering all these wonderful things in my life, I can't help but think of the children in Africa and other parts of the world that are enduring terrible hardships.

One of my New Year's resolutions is to be more thoughtful of people in need.

I got an email from UNICEF with an actual shopping list in which it listed lifesaving items for kids around the world. It includes blankets, medicines, food, vaccines and clean water storage.

I am making a personal gift as I write this! Happy Holidays to all.
