My Christmas experiment (we decided to not exchange gifts this year, and to concentrate on CHRISTMAS) benefited my life in ways I will always remember!
Christmas Day was peaceful, quiet, warm and happy.
Most of all, the stress which has always surrounded Christmas was gone.
Just ... gone.
The weather cooperated enough for us to take a short walk and enjoy the silence of the day ... and, of course, to find a heart!
Will I do this again?
Exchange chaos for peace?
Presents for presence?
Shopping for family and friends?
The answer is ... a resounding YES!
