Christmas is so special. What with the lights and the Christmas movies and time together, it is easy for me to see how wonderful this time of year truly is. But Christmas, as cozy and warm as it is, also highlights pain more than any other time of the year. It's a reminder of those no longer with us, and the sorrow that this Earthly world brings. Today I felt deep in my heart to remind us and myself to hold space for both the joy and sorrow that Christmas may bring. Maybe you've lost someone this year and the thought of Christmas seems difficult without them. Or maybe you yourself have had trauma and are looking for a way to cope through life's struggles. I hope you find this podcast to be cathartic. And I hope you know and understand that no matter the amount of pain you may find yourself in this Christmas, that there are others who feel that with you and are here with you to hold space for both grief and joy.
