Vet Story (Brightside VIP Club Blog): Rub Your Hands Together and Feel the Warmth

 

Vet Story: “Rub Your Hands Together and Feel the Warmth

By Staff Sgt Reginal Lyerly US Army Retired

                When we think of the holidays, we think of warmth and togetherness. This is even more of a celebration as we reach a new normal in society. We may experience economic uncertainty on some fronts but we are anchored by our traditions. We can reflect on how restricted we were and the freedom we are seeing again.

    This is the time that we remember family, celebrate family, cherish old memories and make brand new ones. Many of us feast like never before and party like never before. Many of us will enjoy those sporting events from all of our favorite professional teams.

    As breathe new life into this holiday season, gratitude and attitude should reach an all-time high. Many will be going to their favorite stores and making the most of every sale. There will be many gatherings in businesses, schools and many places of worship.

    This is season that multiple faiths observe their days of high significance and times of reflection. We hope to reflect on the upcoming New Year and what it can bring. The potential for people to be everything that they were meant to be.

    We rub our hands together and feel the warmth. The warmth of reuniting in the present, embracing the past and share optimism for the future. Can we make the future what we want it to be? We feel the warmth, we feel the love and we feel the promise of new opportunities and beginnings.

Our mission is to empower trade, business and jobs through content, events, broadcasts that network, connect, refer and share information.
