In this crazy-busy-joyous season of giving, yes, we’ll spend lots of time thinking about shopping, about meals, about days off. We’ll also stop to reflect about what’s most important. Family. Love. Life. Gravy. And we’ll also hear many folks lament the fact that—in the zaniness of it all—we’ve lost touch with the true and deep meaning of the holidays. Gratitude, giving, the spirit of helping each other. In keeping with the happy-and-healthy wishes of the season, I’ll share a few things I’d like to hand out this year. Here is what I would like to give in this season of giving.
