A single season can hold purpose, meaning, and in many ways is a gift, but during the holidays, those truths can feel shadowed or forgotten. For many, a dread emerges in the concern that you will be asked awkward or probing questions, or the feeling of lack can encourage temptation to “cuff” for the season. Know that this holiday season does not need a fast-forward button, in fact, it may serve in years to come as a memory you cherish greatly.
