When you break down Christmas traditions beyond the events and quirky activities that each family participates in every year, you find that the real purpose behind those traditions is to build community and provide a platform for unconditional sharing. These traditions draw families and friends together like little else can, and Adam suggests that this unique cohesion should become a bigger part of our lives day-in and day-out, from the end of December to the middle of March to the beginning of August.

The people in your life are all there for a season, and you never know when your life circumstances are going to change, so why not spend time with the people who matter most to you right now? Reach out a helping hand, send that encouraging text, show up for them when they need a friend, treat them to coffee, and be quick to serve. When you make giving and caring a part of your daily life, you will start anticipating the needs of others and thinking of yourself less and less, but within a true community, your acts of kindness will be returned right when you need them most. Don’t overthink it when someone comes to mind: give them a call, send them a text, or pop by their office over lunch to check in with them and strengthen those bonds. You will never regret giving the gift of happiness.
