Thoughts for the week. Most of us spend our holidays, some of the busiest times of year, with family, with friends and extended families and extended friends. It’s not uncommon to have overscheduled days and overbooked schedules. With all of these factors, it is possible to create an atmosphere where not only tensions but also excitements are running high.
Virginia Satir was a noted American Author and therapist. I found this quote by her and thought it held great power and importance every day of the year, but especially during the busiest and most special of times when what we all really want is to truly be able to recognize and to appreciate the hustle and the hurry, the busy and the bustle.
Feelings of worth can flourish only in an atmosphere where individual differences are appreciated, mistakes are tolerated, communication is open, and rules are flexible — the kind of atmosphere that is found in a nurturing family. - Virginia Satir
