This week I am presenting on a panel about ‘Finding Joy’, how we manage holiday expectations if alone due to work, location, interesting family dynamics or for any other reason; how we reach out to each other or take action to be part of the community. What is around in your town or city that is fun and gives a sense of contentment? Different colleagues will present on London, New York, Michigan and Boise, Idaho, about the wonderful events that can lift our spirits. So, if you know anyone who is alone, don’t leave them hanging, invite them for coffee, dinner, a cocktail or a concert. As we head for winter and staying inside for either social or pandemic reasons, it is still important to be considerate, kind and compassionate; old fashioned words, but say them aloud and the meaning resonates. Joyeuse Fetes!
