I've written a holiday letter forever and still send out greeting cards even thought it's the digital age. Somebody's gotta keep the post office afloat, right? Just doing my part. It's the least I can do over the holidays. So, even though I'm running out of time, I am not about to NOT write one this year.
I have noticed over the years that my holiday letters keep getting shorter and shorter. It seems to work better that way. Most people probably don't read them anyway. So, this year, I figured I would write one sentence that sums up the year. It's harder than it looks. I had multiple ideas...some that would make readers think life was beautiful and others that life sucked. I read them out loud. I cut the ones that sounded too much like a Hallmark card. Then, I
couldn't pick just one so I offer these thoughts for your holiday enjoyment:
A good dog can make a bad year not so bad after all.
Life is nothing but change and surprises, so why am I always
so surprised?
Keep calm and pet your dog.
Try it yourself. What would be your one sentence to sum up the year? You still have 9 days to come up with something. Happy Holidays!
