No, that’s not a typo in the title. It might be Christmas Eve, but I’m not talking about presents…I’m talking about presence. The holiday season is upon us, which hopefully means more time with family, friends, and other loved ones. While exchanging gifts and presents, don’t forget that the greatest gift you can give someone is your presence–being there with them in the moment without distraction. I’m guilty of not always being present in family settings…scrolling my phone while being semi-present to the conversations and people in the room. It’s not something I’m proud of, but now that I am more aware of it, I can do something about it. And what better time than Christmas Eve with my family and Christmas Day with my in-laws? I’m sure the sweater, shoes, or V-bucks you bought will be well received and appreciated, but I know your attention and presence will be appreciated even more. Over the next few days, give the greatest gift you can and be present with the loved ones in your life. JC |

I was always taught to treat people with respect, always do the right thing, and stand up for those being targeted or picked on. Basically, the Golden Rule was reinforced by what my parents taught me and what I observed of them. But it was never stressed that by doing this I’d find my Self with a network of people treating me the same way, advocating for my success, and being willing to do their part to help me...
“The world will never be a better place if no one is brave enough to do the right thing.” -Judy Hopps, Zootopia 2 We went and saw Zootopia 2 last weekend. I forgot about this quote I put into my Notes on my phone to revisit until yesterday, when I was outlining what was supposed to be yesterday’s Daily Note–I didn’t get to write it because of an unusually full day that started earlier than usual at the orthodontist. When I read waiting for Leo to get imaging for his next round of braces...
