Mariah Carey, All I Want For Christmas… Is Christmas.
“I don't want a lot for Christmas. There is just one thing I need…”
“I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true…” - Mariah Carey
Almost had you singing, right?
Yeah… it´s this time of the year again. Where people can really feel something is building up in each house, in each heart.
I write this newsletter with one sole purpose: making the experience of this holiday not just a seasonal emotion, but a mantra for which we wait so long to celebrate.
We celebrate Christmas for various reasons, yet the number one reason that comes to mind when speaking of Christmas …
Is celebrating love. Light & Community.
That´s the whole reason behind the idea of gathering, of helping, of preparing the super huge meal with your friends or family.
Is having the opportunity to see into each others´life and say: hey, I know it´s been a long and tough time, yet here we are… what about pausing a little bit and having a moment to enjoy life, huh?
All I want this Christmas is not only you. All I want this Christmas is…
For you to change.
For you to love more, cry more, laugh more, live more.
For you to enjoy time with your family and cheer up with meaningful people.
For you to complete your projects and celebrate the wins.
For you to rejoice while recalling all those past memories.
This Christmas that´s my biggest wish for you all.
And it´s quite hard to know if this promise can be made. So I need your help.
During the rest of the month, make each day count.
Grab your phone and post a tweet, a photo, a video… just make clear and vivid the action you take that day to transform your Christmas.
It can be writing down you helped a friend cook dinner last night.
It can be you called your family after not being with them for a long season.
It can be sending that heart-warming message that can light up the spirit of someone you love… or even someone who isn´t now with you, but you want them to know what they really mean to you.
Help the real Christmas spirit grow this season.
Tag me here on the platform if you write down for each day about your special action. Or on every post you share. It´ll mean the world and I for sure will be there to support.
All my writings, videos, and projects… are made so that you can become part of a meaningful and human community.
This Christmas we should celebrate.
We should make the emotion last.
So, now that you are committed to feeling this Christmas, I hope you are ready to sing with purpose: “All I Want For Christmas, Is For You.”
Happy Holidays
Alex

💭 The Lonely Reflection
In the tapestry of life,
There is a thread that weaves the divine.
A whisper in the midst of chaos,
a gentle grace, and that is magic
that is given to us.

Thank you for this wonderful post - and all the best to you for your holidays too! It has been just recently that I reflected together with my Boyfriend that it is so hard to be kind and humble in our society, we all just seem so tired... but honestly, I think that ought to be the reason why we should try even harder. Thanks again.
