Oh I do identify with this, although our respective Christmases are very different. I’m getting there now, but you’re right, it does take a long time. And I think the stressful parts of the season have an effect on us (I wrote about this recently).

I often find if I go through the motions it starts to feel right, but I’ve accepted the fact that I can just enjoy others as they revel in it. And stay in the peace of my own little version. And like you said, waiting so that God finds me wherever I am .

You’re welcome, Chris. Peace to you. It will come on its own time.

Thanks for the reminder that it can take a bit to shift gears for the season. I’m not feeling all that Christmassy this yet this year myself.
