Choosing Peace

A reminder for when life takes a turn onto Crazy Avenue.

It's that crazy time of year. As if life isn't busy enough, now we've got to lob onto our to-do pile Christmas shopping, cooking, baking, cleaning, parties, yada, yada. Just thinking about all that needs to be accomplished in the next 2 weeks gives me hives. Does the holiday season really have to be this insane?!

In a word: no.

Even in the midst of Christmas chaos, it's still a choice to embrace peace. Remind yourself of that. Slap it up on a sticky note. Write it on the back of your hand. Do whatever you have to do to remember that peace is a choice you can make even while you're running errands and standing in line.

Do it. Choose peace.
