Sir Godfrey Gregg

Merry Christmas! The waiting is over, the day has arrived. Amid the excitement of unwrapping gifts and the joy of a festive feast, there is one final, and perhaps most important, gift to give yourself and others: the gift of being truly present.

Today, let the to-do lists fade away. Silence the inner critic worrying about whether the turkey is perfect. Put your phone down. Be here, in this moment, with these people. Look into the eyes of the person you’re talking to. Soak in the laughter, the messy wrapping paper, the shared smiles. This is it. This is the magic you’ve been preparing for.

The greatest gift you can receive today is the love that surrounds you, and the greatest gift you can give is your full, undivided attention. So breathe it in. Be grateful. Be here, now. From our family to yours, we wish you a day filled with the simple, profound, and priceless joy of being together. Merry Christmas
