Wanted used my voice saying

Instead of saying marry Christmas, I wanted to say happy winter holidays.There are too many holidays that are celebrating this season. I get it. Some rather say Marry Christmas because that is what some of us were raised on. Anyway, enjoy the video.

... Read moreWinter brings a plethora of celebrations that go beyond traditional phrases like 'Merry Christmas.' In various cultures, people celebrate the solstice, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Year's. Using inclusive language when sending holiday greetings not only shows respect for others’ traditions but also fosters a spirit of community and togetherness. A recent survey highlights that many individuals seek out messages that reflect the diversity of celebrations during this season. The trend of personalized voice messages has gained popularity, allowing people to express their unique sentiments and cultural backgrounds. For example, a simple 'Happy Holidays' can encapsulate the essence of the winter season, resonating with a wider audience. Moreover, the use of creative video messages can enhance the joy of sharing. By integrating visuals and audio, you can spread warmth and happiness in a memorable way. As we celebrate this festive time, let’s remember to embrace everyone’s traditions and wishes. Acknowledge the beauty in our differences and enjoy this season of joy, peace, and connection. Whether you're sharing a video greeting or a simple voice message, let's make it a season to remember!

I am so used to saying, “I’ve got it.”
Even when I don’t. Even when I’m tired. Even when help would actually feel good. Today, I’m receiving differently. I can receive help without proving I deserve it. Stop proving it. Believe it. Receive it. #receiving #doneproving #softlife #abundancemindset #theasairismo

I was adopted when I was 3. Fostered before that, since I was 2. And from the outside, it probably looked like I got lucky. We had nice clothes. Took family trips. Had birthday parties every year. But deep down, I always felt like I didn’t really belong. Like I was there… but not wanted.
