Christmas Wish-List

 
 
6 things I've decided to do differently this Christmas. (for reasons why, read the blog below)

1. Stop Hoarding

-Clothes and go through my cupboard and give away every piece of clothing that I haven't worn in the last 5 months

-Food and have piles of tinned and canned meals in my car and at my home ready to give to any who ask for "A christmas box"

2. Start Inviting

-The lonely to my home for a meal

-The lost to one of our christmas services at church (people generally say "yes" at this time of year)

-The lazy to hit the back garden for a game of cricket, a round of golf or even a swim in the ocean...yes, I do swim on occasion...when conditions are perfect)

3. Lose my pale skin

(I know, it would be a christmas miracle, but one can dream!)

4. Watch Less

-television and series on my own with the justifying statement of "it's MY holiday!"

-movies as a default when asking the question, "what should we do today?"

5. Keep Quiet

-when family frustrate me

-and ask more questions rather than always giving my opinion. (be interested and stop trying to be interesting)

6. Make Memories

-with my parents, brothers, sister in law and nephews

-for other people who haven't had many memorable christmas' before

-by taking the danger encircled path of sacrifice over the highway of self-entitlement and gluttony


Best Christmas ever?
