The Christmas Season is finally here & this gave me a perfect opportunity to share some holiday cheer that I have been wanting to for awhile.
For me, it's not about the presents or any material possessions. While, yes, they ARE nice (I won't lie lol), it's about the spirit of Christmas, which, if we allow it, can live in our heart 365 days of the year...
Yes, it has been a very DIFFERENT year & very challenging, to the point of almost breaking some of us. I realize one day of the year doesn't erase this. However, as we take pause from the chaos during that day, we can remember to exhale & be present in the moment.
We are still standing....we are still HERE & we have become stronger & more resilient (even if we don't feel that way right now)...we are amazing human beings, who have persevered through major odds & we can still take stock of what we have...
Let us put aside the division, the drama, the politics...and remember WHO we truly are... we still have much to be grateful for...even if it's one small thing each day...
So, this is my small gift to you ....
Wow, I would be here all day if I included everyone I wanted to spread holiday love & cheer to. So, here are a few I would like to highlight…
Do know, however, if your name isn’t included, I have NOT forgotten you … every one of you have impacted my life in such an amazing way & I honor all of you!
@ph1102 - what can I say? You are my best friend & my rock. Thank you for being there for me no matter what & all of the laughs & joy we have shared throughout this year. You are the TRUE example of a best friend & know we will be besties for many years to come.
@traciyork - you are amazing! I am blown away with your creativity & positive spirit you have injected into the Hive community. Your GIFS are on a whole new level & you have the highest respect from me. Thank you for carrying on the HIVE spirit (as well as me!), even when we all were tired & struggling. Love you!!
@iamraincrystal - I found another soul sister in you…throughout the year, I have enjoyed your posts & have seen you grow into an amazing vlogger. I love the cats & the lessons that you have shown in each post, in turn helping me as well as others in ways you will never know. Thank YOU for being a bright light in the time of darkness & for keeping me going when I felt I couldn’t….much love to you & your family.
@jongolson - Thank You! I can never thank you enough for introducing me to the blockchain…I had NO idea what a journey I would be in for…it has literally changed my life for the better. Aside from the awesome world of crypto, the SteemSavvy/CTPTalk Community has allowed me to grow into my Pixie Post brand & build relationships with amazing people I would’ve never met otherwise. The laughs, tears, & learning moments have all made it worth it…again, thank you. Namaste (I see the light in you).
@ctptalk - you are all amazing people. I have seen so many of you grow & bloom into better versions of yourselves (& you were awesome already! ;) ) I am so proud of you guys & know you will continue to thrive & flourish. Just never give up, keep going out of your comfort zone & BELIEVE no matter what. To list a few of the community members (in no exact order), I am sending love & holiday cheer to you ….

@thisisawesome - what an amazing ride!! Being a part of this AWESOME (no pun intended) project has been wonderful. It was another way I found more inspiring HIVE community members & learned a lot from other people’s experiences & journeys. Thank you for letting me be a part of this & to all members of this project, you have all done a wonderful job!! I am so glad we had this experience & got to know each other more as well! :)
@HiveTwitter - Omg, I feel SO much for all of you. Twitter has always been a tool for my trading & inspirational posts, but never did I realize how much you all would touch my life….. @nathanmars, thank you for you all of your hard work & dedication to raising awareness of how great our HIVE blockchain AND community is. We can have the highest priced crypto in the world, but without a strongly bonded community, imho we have nothing…the PEOPLE are the ones who make HIVE what it is, regardless of where we go in crypto prices. And the ones who stay are part of that important & integral part of it…thank you for showing us that in the way only you can do! :) To my HiveTwitter family, you guys inspire me EVERY day, even when I am down & out. Thank you SO much. Whether you realize it or not, you ARE making a difference by being your authentic selves & shining your light in the way you should. Just to mention a few to highlight ALL of you,

And to just finalize these Christmas wishes, I want to reach out & wish you ALL a bright holiday. Yes, it may be different this year & we have been through a trying year … to say the least. BUT do know you are valued & you ARE loved. You matter. We have all persevered & we are still here. So, let us celebrate what we DO have & for what is GOOD in our lives.
Sending so much love, light, & holiday pixie dust to you all.
