How to Enjoy the Holidays as a Highly Sensitive Person

“The holidays are meant to be a cherished time of togetherness with family and friends, a time to switch off from work, relax and have fun.

But for highly sensitive people (HSPs), the festive period can trigger a lot more fear than it does cheer.

Between extended periods of socializing, decorating, entertaining, gift buying and endless holiday to-do lists, HSPs can easily get overwhelmed during the holiday season. It’s a recipe for anxiety and marrow-sucking exhaustion – which is not how anyone wants to enter 2024!

Thankfully, HSPs can learn to enjoy and even relax over the holidays with a few simple tricks.” Source: How to Enjoy the Holidays as a Highly Sensitive Person

Obituary information for Raymond J. Bonelli

Ray is third from left in this photo above…

I didn’t know until I read his obituary how much older than me Ray was or what he did for a living. I knew Ray when I was in high school and when you’re a self absorbed 17 year old, you don’t always pay attention to other people or understand how important they really are in your growth and development and how you’ll carry that forward…

Bruce Lee’s Never Before Revealed Letters to Himself About Authenticity, Personal Development, and the Measure of Success

“This is the entire essence of life: Who are you? What are you?” So wrote young Leo Tolstoy in his diary of moral development. Bruce Lee (November 27, 1940–July 20, 1973) was around Tolstoy’s age when he turned to this central question of existence more than a century later and approached it with the same subtleness of insight and sincerity of spirit with which he approached all of life.

JFK: One Day In America

60 years ago on November 22, I returned home from morning kindergarten to find my mother sobbing on the couch and I can remember it like it was yesterday. As a former Catholic of Irish descent, John F. Kennedy was a god to me. The first book I was able to read on my own was about him. Here’s another good documentary, this time with ‘last’ interviews from the people who were there…

He was the president of the United States and the governor of Georgia, but Jimmy Carter often said the “pinnacle” of his life was marrying Eleanor Rosalynn Smith.

The Inside Story Behind “Too Much Time on My Hands”

If you’ve been singing the lines, “I’m sitting on this bar stool, talking like a damn fool, got the 12 o’clock news blues!” over and over and over during the past 10 days or so, then you’re in good company. Jimmy Fallon, the host of NBC’s uber-popular The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, has been singing the lyrics and jamming along to the song on the show on a regular basis of late, culminating in a shot-by-shot recreation of the song’s infamous 1981 video with actor Paul Rudd this past Friday, April 29, which you can view right here. “It’s the best song I’ve ever heard in my entire life,” Fallon exclaimed about “Too Much Time” to guest Adam Levine on the previous night of the show — and who can blame him?
