Find a new tradition. Ask someone if you can spend the holiday with them. Bake something new. And yet, also acknowledge that you will need time to grieve. Plan for it and give yourself the gift of time to cry, write, journal, walk, or whatever gives you peace.

Giving always brings joy. Perhaps they might like to start a new tradition as Casey suggested... maybe volunteer to help the homeless with meals on Christmas day??? Or help a charity distribute toys to children maybe ???

I would give a plated meal to an old man who lived in a caravan on some land nearby.He had worked for a contractor who had a threshing mill which went from farm to farm.He lived in his caravan in the barn courtyard.He also acted a security man for the contractors yard.Well once old the "boss" asked for rent and moved the caravan to another place.It fell apart but the old man fixed it up. I did ask him to eat with us but he said he had to stay in..for what I dont know no one ever came.So I took his meal and a paper hat over.I would also give him food for his cats...but knew he ate it. The contactor sold house sites on his field...made a bomb but I wonder what he thinks in dead on night. The old man finally went to the old folks home.I gave him a complete outfit from my Grandfather..I think actions speak louder than words. Mounain ash
