Do you ever find yourself feeling like this sloth? Maybe you have an injury like he does and just can't move around like you usually do? Maybe you don't have a visible external injury, but you just don't have the energy to move. I definitely have days like that. I think I identify with this sloth more than any other stamp right now. I find myself asking what's going on as I don't even have the energy to raise my arm.
And you know what, that's OK. Whether you physically touch gleaming decorations as you prepare to celebrate or just enjoy those you can see from your place on the branch (or couch) that others have placed in celebration, that's OK. You are still seeing the beauty and celebrating the miracle of the season. Whether you can place the sparkling decorations in your outside environment or not, you can definitely focus on that sparkle in your heart. Focus on that!

Love your observations on the sloth and think we can all identify to a degree! For me, going through breast cancer chemo, surgery, radiation, etc. has left me with sloth-like tendencies some days - lol! Your card is a fun take a holiday creation! Thanks so much for joining us at Paper Players!
ReplyDeleteI too am a breast cancer survivor (4 1/2 years so far) so maybe that is why I understand that sloth. :) The sloth may be slow, but he still gets the job done. I think I'll purposefully take a slothlike view of this holiday season.
DeleteAngel, I just love how you paired this little sloth with the holiday papers. I think your post is really meaningful because the holiday season can be experienced in so many different ways. I love that you are sharing that! Thanks so much for joining us this week over at The Paper Players! Big hugs sent your way!
