Sometimes the Christmas season can be exhausting and by "sometimes," I mean always. That's just the way it is during the busy holiday season. My one word of advice? Don't let yourself become jaded. While consumerism and social gatherings tend to monopolize most of peoples' time during the holidays, it's important to never lose sight of the generosity and sense of giving that's meant to anchor the entire season.
