The Most Stressful Time of The Year!

Christmas and New Years is a time for gift giving and folks spending money they do not have. It is a time for numberous parties but what happens when the last party is finally over?


Poem Artwork

 We know about Christmas and New Year's songs about merry times and good cheer.

But for many folks, this can be “The most stressful time of the year.”

Kids want more things; strange relatives coming over, so be prepared and run for cover!

It all stems from high expectations, and greedy folks wanting more and more.

People eat too much and gas attacks abound; so save yourself from those bad odors!

People over drink, mouths spill bad beans and all is really not so well, in fact it can be rather sad.

Some say bad things to their family, their friends and they can even make their bosses mad.

So all of this partying, drinking and over eating should be avoided at any cost.

Just think about waking up the next day and looking like Frankenstein or a sick puppy that’s lost!

So it’s time to reflect and look forward to a better life in the upcoming New Year.

It’s time to get on the right track, get the boots out and to finally kick those old bad habits in the rear!

The Lord has a plan for us that gives us hope; His book the Bible makes it very clear.

The Lord loves us all of His children and will always be right here.

Have a Happy New Year!

Amen

 

    Reference: Jeremiah 29:11
    "For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. (NLT)

John,

All so true. And if we would all forget the partying and pay more attention to the 'real' Christmas, stress? not so much. Happy New Year!

That's why I like small Christmas gatherings and even smaller New Year's Eve. Me and my S.O. went out for prime rib, came back and watched a Father Brown mystery. It was a fine Christmas holiday.

GOD BLESS YOU
