Executive Director’s Report for December 2022
“Remember that very little is needed to make a happy life.”
Marcus Aurelius
We are in the spirit of giving and sharing. The educators and children will be busy preparing a Holiday Luncheon at all centres for themselves and their invited guests. We have invited community members and our partners at their centres. They are making gifts for their loved ones, decorating and doing acts of kindness to help spread the joy of the season.
This is the time for holiday cheer. It can be a magical time when people come together to break bread and share good times. Children delight in all the holiday displays, the lights, and the festivities.
This is also the time when families feel the challenges of trying to keep up with the demands of the season. Some of that stress we do put upon ourselves. Do we need to show our love by giving monetary things? Do we need to get caught up in the commercialism? Is happiness wrapped up in a sparkly bow?
Be kind to each other. I wish you good health and much happiness in the coming year. Please take the time to give of yourself and share your gift of talents with each other because the best things in life aren’t things at all. Peace and Love.
“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.” – Helen Keller
