Sideline or End Zone? Which Are You?

Are you a sideline chic or an end zone queen? If you ever notice, the people standing along the sidelines are just waiting for their turn to get in the game or just wishing they’d get called to play. If you look at the anxiousness or disappointment in their faces, then you’d understand where I’m going with this.

I'm just thankful that I have the opportunity to spend time with family members whenever I can. There are many people who can't really say that because they may be separated by miles and miles or oceans from each other. Studies have also shown that the holidays are usually the time of year when most people are depressed. Maybe because this is usually the time of year when they miss their lost loved ones the most.
