Ziiiiinnnnnnggggg

The holiday season has arrived and we are going into celebration mode. A time for family, friends, laughter and good cheer. Decorations light homes and hearts like ziiiinnnnngggg (onomatopoeia). People feel happy, togetherness and warm wishes.

This is a time, along with every other moment we have in our lifetimes, to enjoy, smile and wish. My son Ellington inspired me making the ornament with these words because those were ones he chose. In the definition of enjoy it says "take" and that is something that made me look twice at the meaning. The reason for this is because I've been thinking about when it's fair to take and when we should just accept what is given.

In the definition for the word enjoy it says, "take delight or pleasure in". I suppose this is when it's acceptable to "take". This holiday season, I'm choosing to take delight and pleasure in the real ziiiinnnggers. The kind of people, places, things or ideas that bring the true spirit of Christmas to life.
