I know many of us sisters are getting anxious. Why? Christmas is just 30 days away. Yes, you read right, Christmas is less than a month away. While some are way ahead with their preparations, some of us are trying to figure out how and when to start. Others are getting tired just thinking about the cleaning before the actual preparation.
I don’t know if it is just a Guyanese thing, but we really do put ourselves under a lot of pressure year in year out. For what? It does not matter that we are reminded that Christmas is about giving and sharing and remembering the sacrifice Jesus Christ made to come to this earth as a baby before ultimately giving his life for us, we still spend too much energy ‘making the house look nice’.
Today is the first of four Sundays before Christmas, make it count. Remember to take it easy to ensure that there are no anxiety attacks.
