Giving…and more giving
‘Tis the season of giving
Giving love and joy
Giving peace and blessings
‘Tis the season of remembering
Remembering love
Remembering those who are lost
‘Tis the season of joy
Joy in the wonder of children
Joy from the lights, sounds, smells
‘Tis the season of forgetting
Forgetting pain
Forgetting loss
Yes, ’tis the season of giving
and more giving
A chance to love beyond ourselves
perhaps create new traditions of giving
‘Tis the season

This is just lovely, Lydia! It definitely IS the season!
So beautifully put, and we do tend to forget that part of giving is forgetting the pain and difficulties so we’re free to give.
