The snow fell gently and silently. I carry that happy memory with me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a global pandemic, it can be hard to find peace in simple moments when you know the world outside is burning. Yet, somehow you manage to find stillness in yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want to advise people against consumerist tendencies during the holidays. The people around the tree are more important than what\u2019s underneath it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My hope for this world is that we don\u2019t wait until the holidays to be a kind and giving person. That we extend the spirit we feel during this season, and use it all year round. I hope you and the rest of your friends and family are staying safe and warm this holiday season. What are some of your favorite traditions to celebrate? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"639\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alixgenerous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/d9bc914f-ffa4-4072-a632-5ba0f68c0c9a-11743-000009550d7ccb68_file.jpg?resize=960%2C639&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3167\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alixgenerous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/d9bc914f-ffa4-4072-a632-5ba0f68c0c9a-11743-000009550d7ccb68_file.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alixgenerous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/d9bc914f-ffa4-4072-a632-5ba0f68c0c9a-11743-000009550d7ccb68_file.jpg?resize=655%2C436&amp;ssl=1 655w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alixgenerous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/d9bc914f-ffa4-4072-a632-5ba0f68c0c9a-11743-000009550d7ccb68_file.jpg?resize=768%2C511&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.alixgenerous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/d9bc914f-ffa4-4072-a632-5ba0f68c0c9a-11743-000009550d7ccb68_file.jpg?fit=960%2C639&amp;ssl=1 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I remember walking in the snow on Christmas Eve in a small village in Switzerland, I could hear choral music all around me from the nearby churches.
