I hope all of you have a wonderful Christmas or a holiday specific to your country. This a time to reflect on the year, enjoy our friends, pets, and families, and celebrate how terrific life is. It is a time of hope, thanksgiving, and sharing love for one another.
Merry Christmas to all of you, from Daily Ramblings.
Until next time…

I’ll forego my typical Motivation Monday posting to wish all of you a Merry Christmas! My sister and her boyfriend are on the way, Mom is in the kitchen preparing the meal, and Dad is reading the paper in his favorite rocking chair.
The family dog is where she always is, relaxing at the foot of my desk as I compose this posting.
As a retired veteran, I would be remiss if I forgot to wish all the men and women of our Armed Forces a Merry Christmas too! I was separated from family many times throughout my career and it was nice to hear from folks back home, wishing me well. One year, a judge from my hometown wrote me a letter, explaining that he had served in the Korean War and missed quite a few Christmas holidays with his family. His letter meant a lot to me, particularly since I was reading it from a guard post on Christmas Eve at the now-disassembled Spandau Prison in W. Berlin, guarding Rudolph Hess, one of the last minions of Hitler’s inner circle.
I also want to wish our first-responders a Merry Christmas. Many of them will be working tonight, while we are sleeping, to keep us safe. I hope all of you have a quiet night and get home safe and sound to celebrate the day with your families.
I hope all of you have the time to think about 2018 and all of the great things you’ve accomplished. I also hope you take some time to begin thinking about all of the great things that lay ahead for you in 2019.
Use this time to enjoy your families, your pets, and your friends. Recharge your batteries and get ready for a great year!
Until next time…
Dave
