A new week

So, my holiday blues have started, but I am determined this year to do all I can to combat them - walk outside, listen to my favorite music, be productive, make holiday goodies. Hopefully all those things will help me combat this unreasonable sadness I feel every year.

And good news! Today is a new day, and the beginning of a new week. It is only 8:30 a.m. and I have already replied to e-mails, made a (reasonable) list of tasks for the week, and showered. A very good start to the day. 

My "Insight" playlist is filling the house (a musical history and window to Cindy's heart), the sun is shining, and I am ready to face the new day, the new week. My life is filled with love, with family and friends, with a lovely home, and many other good things. I do not write this to minimize or deny the hard time I have this time of year, but to speak the truth of good things, to remind my heart and my mind that all is well. I need not be completely controlled by my emotions, and that in itself is a good thing!
