Twelve Days of Christmas..
From http://www.holytrinitygerman.org/xmascustoms.html#twelvedays: "The twelve nights of Christmas were primarily a time of rest from unnecessary labor and joyful prayer. On each of these nights the Christmas tree lights and the Christmas candle would be lit, while the family would gather around the manger to recite prayers and sing carols and hymns. Similar services are held in some churches during these nights as well."
Why not take this time to formulate or revise your career management or job search plan? Take a breath and a break! Enjoy your friends and family and recharge your batteries. In the coming days between Christmas and the Epiphany, I will share a thought, principle or quote that I would encourage you to consider during this time of reflection.
I hope you and yours find this a time of health, heart, and healing.... Happy Holidays!

All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth
Every body stops
and stares at me
These two teeth are
gone as you can see
I don't know just who
to blame for this catastrophe!
But my one wish on Christmas Eve
is as plain as it can be!
All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth!
Gee, if I could only
have my two front teeth,
then I could be with you
"Merry Christmas."
It seems so long since I could say,
"Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!"
Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd be,
if I could only whistle (thhhh)
All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth.
Gee, if I could only
have my two front teeth,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas!"

KWANZAA UNITY AND JOB SEARCH
 |
| Picture from: http://www.wackybuttons.com/buttonstore/Holidays/Kwanzaa.php |
Unity. Encarta dictionary defines unity as singleness or constancy among individuals or groups.
If you are looking for work you may feel more alone than unified! But, it is very important to go out of your way to connect with others during difficult times.
Chances are you have friends and/or family thatcare about you and even worry about you. Take the time and effort (it definitely takes effort) to reach out to and connect with them!

Job Search for the Rest of Us!: Thursday Thought November 1, 2012
A NEW DAY TO START OVER
I started out my day yesterday by accidentally knocking over the glass French Press full of hot coffee. I was barefoot. The carafe cut me and the coffee burnt me.Yesterday was not a good day.
My foot hurt and reminded me constantly how I was: careless, clumsy, inattentive, silly…. All kinds of very negative thoughts filled my head. To top it off I had to shell out the money for a new pot or go without coffee!
As it turns out, the kitchen store sells a variety of replacement glass carafes… I couldn’t find the model I needed, but was reassured by the fact that obviously other people had bad days that started out with pots of coffee, cuts and burns.
“The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word “crisis.” One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity.” – Richard Nixon
Literally, I spent the entire day not considering that other people might have faced a similar fate and, most likely, felt much the same as I did. Did this realization make my pain or embarrassment go away? No.
But, knowing that other people had faced a similar fate and also had to find a way to deal with it brought me some comfort. More, it made me feel a little more connected and grounded.Read more: Job Search for the Rest of Us!: Thursday Thought November 1, 2012
