Breathe

Today . . . there will be madness.
There will be stampedes
and haggling
and raised voices
and yelling
and pushing
and shoving.

I want you to breathe.

The holidays are not about the gifts.
The holidays are not about the deals.
The holidays are not about the coupons.

Breathe!

The holidays are just a tiny bit more important.
Faith. Family. Friends.

Breathe.

Be polite.
Be pleasant.
Be nice.
Be kind.

Breathe.
