It is that time of year for many wondrous things like; Christmas cookies, gift giving, family gatherings, holiday scents, lights, tinsel, and other holiday traditions. But not all are fortunate to enjoy this joyous time of year – many are alone without loved ones to celebrate with, or do not have the luxury of indulging in the festivities. Holiday Blues, it is real and it is affecting many thousands of people each year. What to do if this happens to you?
COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS & BE THANKFUL FOR ANOTHER DAY
The first thing to do when suffering from the Holiday Blues is the most difficult thing to do – you can count your blessings. Thank the Lord for waking up because each day there is a possibility for a life changing blessing or miracle. It is up to you whether or not to accept the miracles and blessings being offered. Depression is a heavy darkness that can easily consume us – do not give in to the darkness of depression and the holiday blues. Remind yourself of uplifting moments or other small encouragements and redirect yourself forward to better things.
