Letter from a friend - Letter 3

Hello, Dear Friend, I hope you had a nice weekend.

Time really does fly, doesn't it? Just the other day, I went to the mall, and guess what? They've already put up Christmas decorations! Can you believe it?I confess that I love this season, besides having a significant meaning for me, I'm one of those who love decorating and playing my favorite Christmas songs hahah. 

However, as as I stood there, I couldn't help but think about the fact that we still have three months ahead of us before we reach the holiday season. While there are undoubtedly many significant dates and events to look forward to, it's crucial to remember that the real joy in life lies in living in the present moment and making the most of today.

I truly believe that happiness comes from making the most of what we have right now. It's about appreciating the ordinary moments, those simple everyday things that often go unnoticed. It's about finding contentment in the little things, like a warm cup of coffee in the morning or a heartfelt conversation with a friend.

The same applies to our family life. So often, in our busy lives, we find ourselves rushing through daily routines, such as hurriedly giving our children baths, feeding them, and getting them dressed. We may do these tasks in a rush, thinking that we'll truly enjoy our time with them and have quality time on a special outing or during a vacation. But the truth is, those seemingly mundane moments are real beauty as the different occasions in life. 

My dear friend, I'm writing this to remind you that happiness doesn't require an elaborate plan or grand gestures. It's about appreciating the present, finding joy in the everyday, and making each day a well-lived one.

I hope that your week ahead is filled with blessings, productivity, and plenty of smiles. Please take care, and remember to enjoy the simple joys that life has to offer.

Take care.

Libia Matheus
