Be Excellent to Each Other

You know, the Christmas season is a wonderful time. A time to gather together again and use the time to enjoy good company, especially if you haven't seen them in a while. It's also the time to remember the birth of our Savior, even though it did not actually happen this time of year, it's just that this time of year would be so depressing if we didn't celebrate everything we can think of now.

People should be excellent to each other during this time. They should use the time wisely. This kind of time is too precious to spend complaining about work, the economy or or less than pleasent life circumstances.

Just eat the food. Enjoy the pie, whatever it may have in it, and smile til it's time to go home. Then, think about what a nice time you had and how much you love being with those people, and how you can't wait for another opportunity like this one.

Anyway, Happy Holidays. I hope it is lovely for everyone. I am planning to have a nice time and I have a lot to be grateful for, but I won't bore you with a list.

I can't believe I haven't commented on the be excellent to each other bit that made me smile. That is the best movie line I have heard in a while!

Yes, we should get together and watch Arrested Development. Dan and Annie loaned us their videos. If you're not busy in a week or two, we can do it at my new house. We should probably have pizza or tacos, too. Or Chili's Great 08, which I don't believe we've had yet.

You stole that line from Bill and Ted. Copy right infringement-er! Stop complaining, that is what the great country is all about, the right to a good complaint. I think I would rather pass gas and eat Chilli '08 or is that just a girl club thing? Being greatful is a good thing and thanks for reminding us all.
