Hi K,
Life is not The Hallmark Channel. Which is why so many people love The Hallmark Channel. Life is maybe 1% Hallmark. We have to Act As If, though. It’s funny, all their movies are so formulaic, and yet multitudes of my friends have confessed to me that they love it.
Love IS out there. It is like a unicorn. When you experience it, you’re never quite sure what you saw.
Lessons from Hallmark:
Dress festive!
Become obsessed with your work only to…
Begrudgingly come home to take care of a sick aunt or save the Christmas pageant.
Give the nice guy, the guy from long ago, and the guy with kids a chance.
My point? When you are busy with work AND play (ice skating, caroling, sledding, saying yes to invitations) love will stumble upon you.
It happened to me,
Inky
