The Silver Lining, Destiel Christmas/Hospital fic

Castiel expected to have a regular Christmas, the same he's had for all his life. Spent with family, exchanging presents and good cheer. Basking in the warmth of unconditional love. However, a twist of fate and a prank gone wrong leads him to experiencing a few new firsts.

His first trip to a hospital.

His first Christmas celebrated in a different location.

His first meeting with a certain man, suffering from a horrible case of food poisoning.

Of the three, he hopes the third is the first of many, many more. Is their encounter as rare as a Christmas miracle, or is it the gift that keeps on giving?

Cold. Wind races past his collar and sends shivers down his spine. “Stupid Gabriel,” he growls, shuffling the ladder until it aligns securely against his house. Castiel huffs a foggy breath over his trembling hands, rubbing them together for warmth. “How he can see tangled lights in this weather…”

Snow buffets him on his way up, Castiel pausing at times so he won’t fall off. Halfway up the ladder, Castiel’s common sense tugs at his nerves. Warns him from moving any further in fear of endangering himself. But then Gabriel pops in and strangles the thought, gratingly reminding him that decorations need to be perfect so close to Christmas. “It’ll only take me a second anyway,” he says, climbing another rung, “In and out.”

He reaches the roof, gripping the edges for balance. Squinting, Castiel scans the decorations amassed for the error Gabriel saw. Neck straining from the effort. Finding no fault in the perimeter Castiel checks the larger display. Leans further onto the roof and blindly gropes for Santa and his sleigh of reindeer. His hand slides around a hoof and Castiel squeezes it, smiling.

Suddenly a window rushes open, slamming. Castiel flinches, the ladder teetering underneath. “What? No, no -”

“Merry Christmas Cassie!”

“ No !”

Castiel falls, plastic and metal scraping across his roof and drowning out his screams. Before he hits the ground, Castiel sees Rudolph flying into a nosedive. Hurdling closer until the reindeer is all he sees. He blinks, and the world fades.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Beep. Beep. Beep.

Tentatively, Castiel opens his eyes. Fights against the ten pound weights stretched across his face to re-enter consciousness. He groans, first from the overly bright lights shining above him and next because of a dull ache biting into his side. Castiel tries to rub his eyes, except he can barely find the strength to do so.

“Well… look who finally decided to join the party,” a voice drawls from the left, “It’s about time, really.” It takes too much effort for Castiel to turn his head so few inches. He scrapes together the energy and, in the process, answers important questions knocking around his head.

Like where was he? A hospital, no doubt, given the sterile white walls and medical equipment lying around. And the hanging television playing holiday reruns of, ironically, Doctor Sexy. Unfortunately his smolder doesn’t evoke any of the warmth and comfort it usually does. Pain takes prominence, especially when he moves. Castiel cannot glimpse the damage, but the amount radiating from his right worries him. What he can view are tubes criss-crossing around him and the sickly man hunched over the bed to his left: the owner of the voice. In need of a distraction, he focuses on him.

He watches Castiel with curiosity and tired amusement etched into his features. Pallored skin glistening with sweat, each freckle prominently on display like stars above a city suffering a blackout. The man wears a similar dressing gown to Castiel’s, accessorized with a bucket clutched tightly in his lap. “Hey,” he says, lips trembling, “you feeling okay?”

“I feel like shit.” Castiel’s gravelly voice sounds more so from disuse, croaking the reply. The other man chuckles from nearby, agreeing with his amateur diagnosis. Laughter becomes hacking, and his face disappears into the bucket for a moment. When the echoing coughs stop, the other man emerges. Castiel continues, “How long…?”

“Not sure,” he shrugs, “I was rolled in earlier because they had nowhere else to place me…”

“Place…?”

“There’s not really a wing for food poisoning victims,” the other man explains, “they had to stick me where they could.”

Castiel skews his head to the side, stuffing it further into the pillow. “Food poisoning? You’re in the hospital… for that?”

He glares at him, wrapping his arms tighter around the bucket. IV scooting closer from being tugged. “Listen, pal, I didn’t think I had to be here either. But apparently I’ve got the white blood cell count of a newborn so… here I am.” His head falls back into the bucket. “Be lucky you missed the massive crap volcano that erupted out of my colon.”

“I doubt it was because of luck…”

“True,” his roommate sighs, rising from the bucket once more, “being under for most of it was more drugs than luck. Kind of grateful, though, because then you didn’t hear me yell, grunt, and curse throughout it all… Until…” He blanches, fingers dipping past the rim, “until I just told you.”

Castiel arches a brow, smirking. “Why did you?”

“Because I had no one to talk to this whole time and I hate silence,” he tells him, “Been narrating the past few lonely hours.”

“You’re… not tired?”

“Too nauseous to sleep, really.”

“Even after all that shitting?”

The man rolls his eyes, feet kicking freely underneath him. “It was some pretty rotten eggnog,” he says, “and Sammy promised that vegan crap was all kosher… didn’t see him or Eileen drinking any.”

A little bit of energy jumps into Castiel as he digests the tidbit of information. “Vegan eggnog put you in here?”

“Vegan eggnog and a bad case of the flu,” he defends, “I’m usually made of stronger stuff.”

“So am I,” Castiel says, “Hardly ever sick… once my entire family got bogged down by a nasty virus and I was the only one who managed to remain healthy. Was their nurse for an entire month… schlepping from one house to the next making sure they were feeling better.”

“Then I guess they can return the favor,” his roommate offers, “especially since what happened to you trumps any cold.”

Castiel’s good mood dips low, and his body sags with the reminder of their situation. “Right,” he says, “Uh… exactly what happened to me?”

The man pauses, grin slipping into a tiny frown. “You mean you don’t know? Or… remember?”

“Remember what?”

“Hell I doubt I’d ever be able to forget if that happened to me…”

“What are you talking -” Castiel chokes, dam bursting and the memories flooding over him. He shivers immediately, hospital gone and replaced with the blustery winds from outside his house. Snow falling in clumps from above, doing their best to bury him. Already he thought a blanket of white crushed his chest.

Then Hannah’s face pops into view. Scared, speaking in a way that Castiel cannot fully understand. She’s on the phone, gibberish grating to his ears. So he lolls his head to the side and watches his other sister, Anna, shove at Gabriel with a monstrous expression on her face. The one she wore when it meant their brother dug a hole so deep he couldn’t climb out of it. He remembers smiling, a few of the words cutting through the ringing in his ears to reach his brain. ‘Idiot’, ‘thinking’, ‘killed’, and ‘prank’ are all he heard.

Nearby the burgeoning fight, his friend Kelly tries her best to talk to Jack. Castiel’s nephew won’t tear his eyes away from him. Lazily he shooed him off, trying his best to help. That only brought more focus onto him.

“No, Castiel,” Hannah said, clear for the first time. She wrangled his arms to the ground with haggard breaths. “Keep them lowered to stem the blood flow.”

“Blood flow?” he asked, “What do you mean, blood -”

Blood. So much of it, trickling from where an antler punctured his side.What he thought was snow revealed itself as the broken figure of the reindeer that fell from Santa’s sleigh alongside him.

Face intact, torn from the body at the neck, its black, plastic eyes trapped him. Made it impossible to look away. Even when the paramedics finally arrived and began asking him questions, he answered in a daze. When they removed the decoration, Castiel followed the head with his own until it disappeared from sight.

The next sequence of events plays in pieces. Being patched and carried into the ambulance, Hannah choosing to go with him. Her answering questions for him. Any allergies? Only to shellfish. Medical history? Until now, spotless. The calm, automatic doors at the hospital that betray the urgency of any situation. Doctors and nurses in festive gear descending and doing their best. A prick in his arm and the fuzzying of his senses.

Waking up in a strange room, with a stranger affected by serious food poisoning who has gotten up and leans way too close.

“...come on man, I’m so sorry,” he says, “I thought you knew. I didn’t know - when I asked she said you should be fine. They fixed you up really good, able to save the kidney -”

“My kidney?” Castiel gasps, “It… it hit my kidney?”

“Punctured it in three different parts,” the man tells him, “all clean entries, plastic intact, so no serious problems.”

His mind recovers from the panic, gripping onto the facts presented like a crutch. Thankful for the assurance, but also curious. “How do you know this?”

His roommate’s face shifts from pale to deliriously red, and he shuffles a few steps back. “I… I kinda asked the nurse when she came to check on me?” he winces, “you were still out cold and… there’s nothing really on TV except Christmas specials. If you ask me the last thing I want to be reminded of is Christmas while I’m stuck here…”

Dosed again with a bruising reminder, Castiel finds his injuries doubling and heart plummeting. “Stuck in the hospital on Christmas… it is Christmas, right?”

“Well…” the other man shrugs, “almost. It’s Christmas Eve, but in a few hours…”

“So I’ve been out for an entire day?”

“Seems like it. At least you’re up, from how the nurse put it you were going to be under for awhile - at least until after the holidays.”

Castiel scoffs, “A Christmas miracle…”

“Hey, could be worse.”

“How?”

“Imagine waking up alone,” the man says, squeezing his shoulder, “without this handsome face to greet you.” He winks, charm sparking like a flickering lighter. One that fails easily since a disturbing gurgle cuts through and makes his flirty expression shift into disease. Flies away from Castiel towards the bucket on his bed and bends over it, exposing the festive boxers hidden under his gown. While aware of what his roommate does, it can’t dull the warmth caused from his wink nor the sight of his shapely snowflake-covered ass.

Castiel squeezes the blanket, averting his gaze when the measured pace of the heart monitor picks up slightly. Careful not to disturb the tube he’s sure is lodged to help him pee. Measures his breaths and thinks of horrid things to stem the blood and direct it elsewhere.

Finished, the other man flips and wipes at his mouth. “Here I thought there was nothing left in me,” he gasps, “Sorry you had to see me like that.”

He shrugs, cheeks burning. “You needn’t apologize, you couldn’t help it.”

“Yeah… but I mean, I at least know the names of the guys who I ralph in front of.”

“You mean you didn’t ask for my name when you did my medical history?” His roommate stumbles slightly, tripping over his words in a rush to defend himself. Castiel savors the brief awkwardness before paving over it. “Castiel. My name’s Castiel.”

“Castiel?” The man’s eyes gloss over while processing the name, a look Castiel was oft familiar with.

“It’s… not the most common of names,” he grins wryly, “My father named me - and all my siblings - after characters from his favorite book.”

“What books was that?”

“The Bible.”

Nodding, his roommate drums his fingers against the bucket. A different sound since it’s slightly full. “I mean, it is a good book. The good book.”

"Exactly."

Silence drifts over while they awkwardly bait the other to continue the conversation. Castiel wins, patience one of his virtues. Not the first he waited someone out, and it won't be the last. “So was he one of those religious guys?” he asks, tapping the form of a cross, “Or a… religious guy ?” The balled fists stacked on top of each other, like holding a sign, is easy to interpret.

“Neither,” Castiel tells him, “he got wrapped up in this cult when he was younger, the one Rose McGowan was a part of. When he finally left, he didn’t really give up on the faith. And… well, he already named half my siblings after angels. It’d be stranger if he stopped after Anael -”

“Anael?”

“She found a workaround,” he says, “Anna. Better than my brother Lucifer who chooses to go by his full name. The only one who lucked out was Hannah who got the most normal name of my siblings. Why he couldn’t do the same for me I’ll never know.”

“Hey, Castiel’s a cool name… bet the angel you were named after was a badass,” his roommate smirks, “ I was named after my grandmother, Deanna.”

“So your name’s Deanna?”

“ Dean ,” he purrs, the name curling perfectly under his lips. Teeth flashing in a suggestive manner like its done probably hundreds of times in the past. “Dean Winchester.”

“Well,” Castiel mirrors his expression, “it’s nice to officially meet you, Dean Winchester .”

Dean wiggles his bucket, bowing slightly. “Likewise, Castiel…”

“...Shurley -”

“Shurley. Castiel Shurley, right right right.”

He giggles, enjoying the full body production Dean performs. Attempting a casual facade, crossing one leg over the other while he leans on one hand. The other firing an imaginary bullet from his finger gun. Except he forgets the hand leaning was perched on the bucket, and Dean starts tipping. Vomit sloshes inside the bucket and, after precarious teetering from both parties, both Dean and his bucket remain standing. No mess, but tons of stress.

“Any chance you can pretend that didn’t happen?” Dean asks.

Castiel shakes his head. “Trust me, Dean, on the list of embarrassing things you’ve done tonight this hardly ranks in the top ten.”

“Well shit,” Dean sighs, hopping up onto his bed, “At least it means I can’t make anything worse.”

“The night’s still young…”

“Thanks for the vote of confidence, Cas.”

They laugh, only stopping when the pain in Castiel’s side nastily barges in on their merriment. Reminds him why he and Dean met in the first place. He hisses, vision blackening for a moment. When it returns, Dean is perched on the edge of his bed with worry. “Dean -”

“Are you okay?”

Castiel tries to reassure Dean he’s fine, but another current of pain shocks him. His knees buck up and the heart monitor beeps too loudly and the injured side feels like a meteor burning up in the atmosphere on its path towards crashing into the Earth. Sweat pours down his forehead and his limbs twitch in aborted movements. Dancing like a marionette, controlled by the intolerable cramping.

Minutes flash by like pages from a comic book. A cool touch brushes against his head, drawing one eye open. Its Dean. He appears calm while speaking to Castiel, but the fear is evident in his shiny eyes and trembling lips. In the throes of his pain it plants a seed of comfort, and he focuses on tending to that while dealing with it all.

Then someone rushes in, sneakers squeaking against the linoleum flooring. She removes Dean from view, taking up space and asking questions Castiel cannot answer. When it’s apparent, she switches tactics and scans his station. Finding what she needs, his savior calls to another person who was waiting by the door.

They dip into the hallway, returning moments later with a full bag of clear liquid. The woman who first ran in takes it from the one who brought it, fiddling above Castiel and out of sight. When she crosses his gaze again the full bag is empty. She shoves it into the hands of the nurse. Barks a terse sentence and orders her out.

Time returns to its normal pacing while Castiel’s body melts into the bed and the pain recedes into nothingness. His mind sharpens into awareness briefly and then dulls considerably with each second.

“Is this okay Mr. Shurley?” she asks, pressing around his wound, “Are you feeling anything at all?”

Castiel giggles, her actions tickling the focal point of his trauma. “Not a thing.”

“Perfect,” she sighs, flicking the full bag hanging from the stand in front of her. “So sorry that you had to experience that. A nurse should’ve been by to swap your morphine drip hours ago.”

“My morphine…?”

“Yes, your drugs,” she tells him, smirking, “what’s making it possible for you and I to have a conversation where you can contribute freely instead of in panted moans and grunts.”

Another round of laughter forces its way from his chest and makes his cheeks stretch awfully far. “I like morphine,” he says, “Can I take it home with me?”

“If only it wasn’t highly addicting,” she sighs, swiping at his nose with her finger, “Unfortunately no, but at least you won’t be leaving us so soon you’ll have to give it up right away.”

“Awesome...”

“If that’s all.” She nods, turning to Dean. “Thank you for paging me, it could’ve been much worse had he been alone.”

Dean sags against his bed, grin as large as Castiel’s. “Makes this food poisoning worth it, Doc Masters.”

“Silver lining to everything,” Masters winks. The doctor waves farewell, paying extra attention to Castiel. “Sweet dreams, Mr. Shurley.”

“Bye bye…” Castiel says, head lolling towards Dean, “What did she mean by that?”

“By what?”

“Sweet dreams?” he slurs, “Does she think I’m going to fall asleep?”

Dean’s expression softens, and he drifts closer to Castiel once more. “Yeah, you will. Morphine’s already pumping strong… shouldn’t be long until you’re back under and I’m… I am alone again .”

“ No ,” Castiel whines, throwing a tantrum. Not a good one since his limbs fly without his input, wiggling like jelly. “I don’t want to go to sleep.” Dean calms him, guiding his wrists to the bed.

“You don’t have a choice in it, Cas,” he says, “but… it’s nice to hear you want to stay with me.”

He agrees with Dean, heating up again in a delightful way. “You’re very nice… even if you throw up a lot and can’t handle vegan eggnog.”

Dean scoffs, “I can handle it, when it’s made well. But it’s not my first choice. Give me meat any day.”

“I love meat.”

“We have that in common, then.”

“Do we?” Castiel asks, skewing his head to the side, “You enjoy intercourse with two penises or more, too?”

He chokes, grip on Castiel’s wrists wilting. Dean gapes at him, color draining from his face for an entirely different reason.

In the seconds between his outburst and Dean’s answer, Castiel mulls over what he said. Clarity shines through his foggy mind and he realizes how personal a question he asked his roommate, a practical stranger. His high fades under the sweltering self-consciousness, Dean’s proximity less intoxicating and more anxiety-inducing.

His heart monitor either beeps too fast or not at all since he can’t tell if the ringing in his ears is from it or borne from the screams he refuses to release.

Thankfully Dean starts talking, and the voice inside silences. “I… I’ve never had the opportunity for more… my experience cuts off after two.”

The fuzziness resurfaces with a vengeance, strengthened by Dean’s answer. Caught off guard, Castiel hums. “Oh, well… it’s fun. But, also difficult.”

“I’ll bet.”

“Are you interested in leveling up your experience?”

“Actually,” Dean’s gaze dips towards Castiel’s lips, trailing up to his eyes slowly. “I’m… I’m more of a two-dick guy. Mine and… I don’t know?”

“You don’t know?” Castiel frowns, “that’s depressing.”

Dean laughs like a sad, twinkling bell. “Yeah, it sucks not knowing which other dick you want your dick to spend the rest of your life rubbing up against.”

Castiel nods, “Even more when you’re the only one without a second dick or a vagina to love you unconditionally. And no matter how successful your life is your family looks at you like an awkward throw pillow. They don’t know what to do with it or where to put it.”

“Exactly how it feels,” Dean says, “I… it’s not easy being lonely. Especially around this time of year.”

“But we’re not lonely,” he tells him, “we have each other.”

“That we do Cas… that we do.”

Potential sparks to life in Dean’s eyes, fascinating Castiel. He stares intently into them, watching the verdant fields in the other man’s gaze burn. No intention in calling the fire department to douse the inferno. Castiel wants to watch it forever.

Every blink becomes heavier, harder to remain open with the weights sliding across his eyes. “I don’t want to go to sleep.”

“You need to,” Dean says, “so you can get better.”

“But won’t you be alone again?”

“Nah,” Dean smirks, “it’s like you said. We have each other.”

“Good.” Castiel yawns, stretching far enough his toes peek past the blanket. “I… I really think I should go to sleep now.”

Dean agrees, peeling himself off of Castiel. He shivers with his absence. Castiel stops fighting against the morphine and allows it to drag him into unconsciousness. Dean’s face the last thing he sees when his eyes shut for good.

--------------------------------------------------------------

When Castiel wakes up again, he’s surrounded. His family sit on an assembled pile of chairs, chatting in festive gear while he stumbles into awareness.

Jack notices first, clapping on his mother’s lap and smiling with missing teeth. “Uncle Cas! Uncle Cas!”

Conversation stalls, and every face in the room turns to him. He smiles weakly, waving his hand off the bed as far as he can. “Hi,” he croaks, “how’s everyone doing?”

Gabriel laughs tiredly, scrubbing at his face. “Shived by Rudolph and he’s still thinking about others. Doesn’t that just jolly your holly -”

“Zip it Gabriel,” Anna whacks his chest, “you more than anyone else don’t get to make jokes about this.”

“Oh come on!” he cries, “The doctor said it was a non-threatening injury!”

“Because we called the paramedics,” she says, “and, by luck , your dumb prank only managed to cost him a kidney.”

“Not even! They said it would heal -”

“Guys!” Hannah interrupts their bickering, “Can you save it for later? Maybe after Castiel tells us how he feels?”

Reminded of his presence, his brother and sister sheepishly offer apologies. Castiel forgives them easily, especially his brother. “While it was stupid, I’m not dead.”

“Glad to hear it -”

“But,” Castiel continues, smirking, “I do expect a lot of attention and care… just because I’m willing to forgive doesn’t mean it’s easy to forget. Or move… or pee, I’m guessing.”

Gabriel huffs, crossing his arms. “Should’ve seen this coming.”

“Oh be glad,” Kelly says, “out of everything that could’ve happened, this is the best you could ask for.”

He relents, accepting his fate for the present. Satisfied, Castiel relaxes in bed while conversation resurges. This time filling him in on what happened while he was stuck in the hospital. From muted celebration on the Eve to a rapid exchange of presents in his house so they could arrive when visiting hours started.

“We might have left a few to open when you came home,” Anna admits, “So you didn’t miss all the fun.”

“Thank you…” Castiel holds his tongue, preferring the others to continue without his input. Finds comfort in how bright and cheerful the room feels with their presence. Reminded of a similar feeling, adjacent to the one overtaking his heart, Castiel looks to the other side of the room.

Only Dean’s bed is neat and empty. Not even the bucket was there.

“Wait,” he says, “where’s Dean?”

“What?” Gabriel asks, following his gaze, “Oh? Is that who that was? Didn’t know you got so chummy with your roommate, Cassie.”

“Where is he?”

“He left,” Anna shrugs, “Doctors came in an hour after we arrived to give him the news he was free to go.”

“And he left with this giant of a man!” his brother says, “it was terrifying, truly, seeing someone that massive.”

“He was really cool, Uncle Cassie!” Jack says, bouncing, “He bought me a candy bar!”

Kelly sighs, trying to contain Jack’s energy. “So nice of him…”

“So that’s it?” Castiel asks, frowning, “he just… left?”

Hannah reaches across and squeezes his hand, mirroring him. “There wasn’t any reason for him to stay longer, Castiel.”

He deflates at his sister’s care, her good intentions like a needle to his ballooning happiness. Castiel sighs, tugging his hand free of her hold and folding it over his stomach. “Yes, I… I guess he didn’t.”

No one dare speak, the adults in the room trying to process how Castiel’s mood shifted. His usual defense, to cover disappointment with a carefully constructed mask, doesn’t rise up inside. Whether from the remaining morphine swimming in his system or overall tiredness, Castiel prefers allowing his feelings to play freely across his face.

Memories from last night are fuzzy, but he remembers the important things. How friendly Dean was, and caring. Comforting him when it wasn’t necessary, when he had his own troubles to deal with. The possibility he represented, created thanks to the unguarded confessions brought about by drugs.

He’s drawn from his memories of Dean’s smile by a knock on the door.

Doctor Masters stands there, a smile on her face and a stuffed bear in her hands. Castiel squints at the gift, a heart in its paws and a Santa cap on its head.

“Why hello there Mr. Shurley,” she says, stepping into the room, “glad to see you’re awake again. And not in pain.”

“Thank you,” he says, “I… Am I going to be in pain again?”

She shrugs, “Not likely. I checked up on you an hour after we switched your drip to make sure it was all okay. Got to talking with your roommate and he said you were doing fine until the pain became too much to bear. So I’ve decided to start weaning you off the good stuff, and giving you enough to not feel much but still be present.”

His face softens. “Exactly what I want.”

“Speaking of presents…” she smirks, fiddling with the bear, “someone asked me to give this to you once you woke up.”

Gabriel immediately teases him, shaking his shoulder. “Cassie, you sly dog. Did someone ‘While You Were Sleeping’ you?”

“I, I don’t -”

“Why don’t I leave this here, and you can process it without me,” Doctor Masters says. She places the bear on his lap, walking towards the exit. “I’m only the messenger. Besides, there’s a lot more people in this hospital besides you.”

He misses her goodbyes, examining the bear. Studies details like the red and white scarf wrapped around its neck and the poof ball at the end of its hat is shaped like a plus sign. The red heart has a message on its surface, ‘Get Better Soon’, and one between it and the bear.

A white envelope, easily lost in the white fur of the bear. Castiel frees it, giving the bear to a waiting Jack. He reads the name on the front and his stomach flutters with butterflies emerging from their cocoon.

CAS

“Well,” Anna urges him, “you gonna read it or what?”

Flipping it around, he sees the envelope is barely held together by a piece of scotch tape. It opens with no trouble, the card slipping out and into his hand.

The cover has a replica of the bear drawn on, holding its heart forward. Words tattooed to the heart in the stuffed animal balloon to the top of the cover, taking up a lot of the tundra scenery.

Castiel passes it, more interested in what’s written inside.

Dear Cas ,

Merry Christmas! I wish I could be there to see you wake up, but I know today is supposed to be spent with family.

Thank God it’s only one day a year.

If you want to meet during any of the other three-hundred, sixty four, here’s my number. I hope you call, because I think I’ve found the second penis I want to spend the rest of my life with .

He closes the card, dragging it to his face to hide the blush and skin-splitting face threatening to add more definition to his chin. His behavior only fans the flames of his family’s intrigue, both Anna and Gabriel leaning too far forward in their seats.

“Well,” Anna starts, “who’s it from?”

Castiel waits for his face to cool, and then says, “It’s from a friend.”

“A friend ,” Gabriel chuckles, rolling his eyes, “Like we’ll believe that.”

“He is a friend!”

“He’s also a Christmas miracle!”

His family laughs, and Castiel finds himself joining. Too filled with joy to find their antics annoying. Instead he jokes alongside them and, when they’ve calmed down, explain the night’s events and his secret Santa. Counting down to when visiting hours end and he can make use of the number inside the card.

Merry Christmas, indeed.

Dear Spiritual Awakening Radio Listeners Around the World

Fundraising Campaign

Today is Giving Tuesday, kicking off the charitable season with a celebration of giving and philanthropy.

Dear Spiritual Awakening Radio Listeners Around the World:

On behalf of Spiritual Awakening Radio -- these Sant Mat Satsang Podcasts exploring the Path of the Masters, I want to wish you all the very best for the upcoming Christmas and holiday season and for the New Year 2019. May it be a year full of health, happiness, peace, deeper mediations and progress on all fronts. I also wish for 2019 to not only keep on going... but growing, for it to be a year of expansion of this mission, reaching more people in more podcast venues, in more places, presenting more research into this rare Path of the Masters, placing yet more out-of-print books online; another year of sharing material in English that has up-to-now only been accessible in Hindi, or known only to a small number of people, uploading more spiritual classics of the Saints, Gnostics, Sufis, and other Mystics, making them available to everyone for free, giving them a permanent home on the web... exploring all aspects of the Path: teachings, meditation practice, practical guidance about this Path, and ahimsa ethics (including in the area of diet, as in vegetarian and vegan) -- education for a more peaceful planet.

In this realm maya (illusion) seems to be quite successful at occupying minds with infinite kinds of distractions. As Kabir has said:

"Delusion fills the three worlds, delusion everywhere. Kabir says (and he’s thought about it), you live in Delusion Village. They don’t listen to wise words and won’t think for themselves. Kabir continues to scream. The world goes by like a dream.”

"Blessed are the souls who in today's materialistic world have an inclination towards spirituality." (Swami Sant Sevi Ji Maharaj)

"Whatever actions bring you closer to God, they are good actions. Whatever actions take you away from God, they are bad actions." (Kirpal Singh)

"Dear Aspirants! Each day strive to do both kinds of satsang: inner and outer. Outer satsang is listening to the teachings of great saints and studying the sacred texts. Inner satsang is the practice of one-pointed meditation." (Maharishi Mehi Paramhans)

"Just as a coded document shows the way to a hidden treasure, just so this Bijak shows the way to realize the soul. It teaches such instructive words to the soul, but there is seldom anyone to understand them." (Bijak of Kabir)

"Only the connoisseur, who will test the Shabda [word], and listen to the teachings with full attention, and within whom these teachings will dwell, only he will understand this." (Anurag Sagar)

"O my friend, I speak nothing from myself; I only utter what the Beloved puts into my mouth." (Guru Nanak)

Donations support the ongoing efforts to create new radio programs and podcasts, progress at the Sant Mat e-Library and other educational activities online including in the world of social media.

I also want to thank those of you who have so generously supported/donated during this and previous years. Simply put, Spiritual Awakening Radio owes its existence and success to all of you, the listeners. The future of this most unusual endeavour is largely in your hands.

If you have questions relating your support, please contact me at this email address: [email protected].

DONATE: Contributions to Spiritual Awakening Radio should be made through Pay Pal. There is a Secure Yellow Donate Button on most every page of the Radio Website — GO TO: http://www.SpiritualAwakeningRadio.com/announce.html

Thank you for your support. I look forward to sharing the New Year with you with many new Satsang Podcasts, also gathering together many new books of the Masters online.

Your help is greatly appreciated and needed for 2019 and beyond.

Sincerely Yours, All for the Love of Wisdom and Radio, In Divine Love, Light and Sound,

James Bean Spiritual Awakening Radio

OK, team, it's time for a little mid-December holiday shopping check-in. How's it going? While I encourage you to maintain your sanity by all means during this wild time, I also want to remind you that there are only a couple of weeks left until the big show. If you haven't started shopping yet, it's not too late! It is time to take action, though, and there are no better giving options than beauty gift sets to really get cooking on that shopping list . I. Love. Beauty. Gift. Sets. Seriously, they're a passion of mine. Not only are they an easy intro to brands we're curious about, but they also make for the most thoughtful gifts (hence, the name). But, of course, all gift set are not created equal. Among the many compelling reasons to bye them for ourselves and our loved ones, there are also a handful of traps these mini product collections often employ that make them unworthy of space in our lives. As an editor who's seen just about every variation of gift set known to man, I consider myself particularly well equipped to spot these scams from a mile away. Ahead, read up on the 5 most common gift set traps, and what to buy instead. We've all been fooled into falling for the idea that more is better. Sometimes our eyes play tricks on us, signaling to our brains that a set packed with dozens of products is the dreamy addition you've been waiting for. A good rule of thumb to keep in mind is the 70/30 rule: if you or the person you're shopping for wouldn't be interested in at least 70% of the included swag, then there's probably a smaller, more curated set that would better serve your intentions for giving it. There's no crime in being a major fan of certain brands. We all have those connections to certain labels that stick with us for life. But, don't fall into the trap of buying a gift set just because of the brand name on the package. Really consider what's included in the collection, and whether those items would go to good use. Gift sets tend to have special packaging, signifying a seasonal theme. We're all about some gold leafing on the box, but we take serious issue with gift sets that employ highly unnecessary packaging, like extra plastic wrappings, boxes, and sectionals. Not only does this practice tend to be a cover-up for the fact that there's not as much actual product inside that package as it seems, but it's just plain wasteful. The point of a value set is–you guessed it–to deliver some sort of value. If a set costs more than buying each of the products inside individually, then there's really no point in spending the extra coins just to have them neatly packaged together. Samples are a wonderful way for consumers to get acquainted with a brand, which is why retailers like Nordstrom and Sephora routinely offer them...for free. If you're investing in a gift set full of testers, I'm sorry to tell you that you're doing it all wrong. Deluxe samples are about as small an item as you should pay for. Healthy hair, anyone? Any haircare fanatic will appreciate this discovery set of French favorites. I don't play games, but when I do, it's in the name of a good hair day. While you're nursing some epic hangovers this holiday season, treat you hair to some TLC, too. Commemorate the holidays with an at home spa day. Detoxify your bod wherever, whenever. Who's due for a shower product upgrade? Snag this set for the pal who needs to relax this season. Now, this is a set you'll probably want to keep for yourself. No judgment! You deserve nice things, too. You really can't go wrong with Jo Malone. I'm pretty sure heaven is scented with Boy Smells candles. The natural beauty guru in your life deserves to spritz a new, clean fragrance in the new year. Is there anything better than a Herbivore bath set? I think not. Get the salon manicure look at home with this collection of high-shine, long-lasting polishes. A box full of nail tools to help you achieve the best at-home manicure of your life? Sold. Discover your new favorite shade of nail polish with this set of 24 mini-bottles. Do you know someone who's constantly polishing on the go? She'll love this non-toxic set of essentials. This soothing oil and textures jade roller are must-haves for combating indulgence-related facial swelling this season. Trust me: the Glossier stans in your life want this. This is the perfect collection of products to ward off the winter blues. Tone, hydrate, and soften your skin in three easy steps. This is the perfect gift for that friend who swears she doesn't need to wear sunscreen everyday. Before there was hangover brunch, there was hangover skincare. This tried-and-true set of Caudalie classics will excite any true beauty lover on your list. Brighten up that mug, just in time for the new year. When all else fails, French pharmacy favorites are always there to save the day. Who doesn't love a classic Burt's Bees moment? Give the gift of celebrity skincare favorites. This line is beloved by everyone from J. Lo to Victoria Beckham. Your gua sha curious comrade will be pleasantly surprised to open this chic set. Kiehl's is always a good idea. If you know anyone who's been toying with the idea of hopping on the Drunk Elephant train, this comprehensive set might just be the deciding factor. Dewy skin is always in. Whether you're shopping for a first time La Mer user or a superfan of the brand, this gift is sure to impress. This is a dream kit for the Sephora lovers in your life, who are always down to try the latest and greatest in skincare. Noni fruit and turmeric drive this range of brightening, purifying skincare favorites. Plus, they're totally clean. Introduce a friend to this cool-girl approved line of clean cosmetics. Even the girl who has everything will be impressed with this luxe box of makeup artist-approved clean beauty essentials. This one's for the Little Monsters. It's all about the eyes. This luxe set is the perfect gift for anyone who believes that red lipstick and black mascara are the keys to life. (It's me...I'm anyone.) With clear, pink, and bronze balms, this set is the only thing you'll need to create a naturally flushed and glowy face. You can never have too much liquid eyeliner. (Especially when it's vegan and cruelty-free.) Up next, 11 Perfumes Every Fashion Girl Will Be Wearing This Winter.

Meet “Humanimal” Liza Kahn, Who Inspires People to Make Compassionate Connections Each Day

As soon as visitors enter the “People Barn” at Farm Sanctuary’s Northern California Shelter, they find themselves in a place that inspires compassionate change. Here, guests can make the connections and get the information they may need to help them align their actions with their core values, such as kindness, care, and respect.

Among those at the helm of these efforts is Liza Kahn, whose warm, friendly face is the first one that her fellow “humanimals” see each day. And as she interacts with every volunteer, intern, and visitor she meets, Liza inspires those around her to excitedly greet the compassionate possibilities that lie ahead.

Farm Sanctuary is a place of rescue, rehabilitation, and refuge for more than 1,000 farm animals across our three sanctuary locations — and some people who’ve spent time at one of our shelters might say that Farm Sanctuary life has a way of offering these gifts to humans as well. Here, people may find refuge from systems that perpetuate unnecessary harm, and draw strength from our rescued residents’ incredible journeys and vibrant personalities. In many cases, these interactions have helped people to embrace choices and actions they can feel good about. And Liza — who began working as Farm Sanctuary’s Volunteer Program Coordinator last summer — is no exception.

“It feels great to work for an organization [whose] mission is completely aligned with my values,” she explains. “I get to show up to work every day feeling really good about the work that I’m doing.”

Liza devotes each day to helping people explore their relationships with farm animals and connecting them with the resources, experiences, and individuals they need to make a difference in ways that are meaningful to them. This direction stemmed from a desire to combat the injustices she observed in the world around her — and these days, she inspires others like her to make positive changes in pursuit of what they know to be right.

Liza stands up for individuals like Jordan goat each day.

For Liza, working to help farm animals hits close to home.

“I grew up on a small beef cattle farm outside of Charlottesville, VA, and when I was about eight years old, I became a vegetarian,” she explains. “I was able to make the connection between the animals I cared for and loved to the food on my plate.” From an early age, she recognized that the animals we tend to revere — such as dogs and cats — are not really different from the animals most of us were taught to view as “food.”

Liza hangs out with Felix, one of our resident New York Shelter cats.

In college, Liza studied health systems management at George Mason University and developed an interest in helping elder populations. After graduation, she worked with older adults in continuing-care retirement communities and home health cases, and later returned to school to complete her master’s degree in Senior Housing Administration.

“I learned so much working with older adults and see many parallels between how we treat our elders and how we treat farm animals,” she says.

This realization inspired Liza to reflect on the values she had held since childhood, and adjust her actions to better suit her growing awareness that all populations — no matter the species — contain individuals who may fail to receive the care and consideration they deserve. She felt that the best way to begin to stand up against the systems she opposed would be to investigate how she herself unwittingly perpetuated them and work from there. And when she realized that all farm animals raised for food or other commodities — and not just the ones slaughtered for meat �� endured appalling conditions each day, she decided to embrace a vegan lifestyle as a practical step in bringing visibility to their struggles and working to overcome them.

As she started to delve into animal protection issues, she soon realized that serving this population was her true calling. So she began to thoroughly immerse herself, attending events and conferences to help her find her niche.

“I knew I wanted to commit my career to animal welfare, but wasn’t sure what that would look like,” Liza remembers. After attending an Animal Rights National Conference near her home in Washington, D.C., she learned about Farm Sanctuary and decided to apply for a shelter internship — an opportunity to care for these animals, and to work on behalf of countless others just like them.

“On December 1, 2015, I started my internship with Farm Sanctuary in Watkins Glen, NY,” Liza recalls. “I stayed through February and it was the best decision of my life.” Here, Liza was proud to work on behalf of these animals whose protection she felt so strongly about. Further, she learned the type of lesson that can’t be taught in a classroom: that when we live our lives with intention and compassion, we may facilitate change in ways we never thought possible.

Liza spent plenty of time with animal pals like Liam sheep during her internship last year.

Liza’s work at the sanctuary confirmed for her that helping farm animals was the right path. But she also realized that her background advocating for senior citizens could tie into this burgeoning passion.

Liza with her buddy Jordan.

“Once my internship was completed I was given the opportunity to travel to the Northern California sanctuary for some temporary work,” she continues. “I thought — three months, no biggie.” Liza was to serve as our interim Orland, CA-based Volunteer Program Coordinator while we searched for someone to fill the position permanently. And while embracing the unknown — and on the other side of the country, no less — appeared daunting at first, she took it as an opportunity to explore a position that could expand upon her previous experiences: one where she could utilize her talents and passions to help even more individuals enjoy the peaceful lives that we all deserve.

“Once I got here I realized I could never leave — this place is amazing,” Liza exclaims. And fortunately, she didn’t have to. Liza fit into her new role so well that she was offered the opportunity to take it on full-time. And here, Liza realized that she had found what she had been searching for all along: an opportunity to connect individuals (animal and human alike) with the resources they need to live their best lives possible.

Now, nearly a year after completing her internship, Liza is helping people just like her achieve their own dreams, as she encourages the devoted volunteers, interns, and visitors she meets to spread compassion in ways that are right for them. One of her most beloved tasks is conducting intern orientations at the beginning of each month — a unique opportunity to get to know these remarkable individuals who dedicate their time and talents to making the world a better place for farm animals.

“I get to learn about what motivates and inspires these people,” Liza gushes. “I have the opportunity to watch them make connections that apply to their own personal story. I love learning about what the interns are moving towards and where they see themselves in the future. These brilliant and passionate interns give me so much hope for the future.”

When she’s not introducing new interns and volunteers to Farm Sanctuary life — and feeling inspired by them in return — Liza spends the majority of her time performing administrative tasks, checking in on our interns and volunteers, and helping people learn how they can support Farm Sanctuary’s lifesaving rescue, education, and advocacy work.

“A typical day for me is really, really fun,” she says. And while Liza spends much of her time in the office, she frequently checks in on some other individuals who inspire her — her beloved animal pals on the farm, who motivate her to be the best advocate she can be. “I always make sure to say hello (and squeeze) my farm animal friends on my lunch break,” Liza says. “It is absolutely one of the best perks of working at Farm Sanctuary.”

Liza with her friend September.

During these breaks, Liza can most often be found chatting with the turkeys, her favorite species at the shelter. While she feels honored to work on behalf of all farm animals (and the people who love them), she’s taken a keen interest to her feathered friends.

“When I first started my internship last year, I had been around birds, had an appreciation for them, but no real connection. Through the internship I was able to see the beauty of all birds — especially turkeys,” she recalls. “They are so social and sweet, with very curious and unique personalities.” She loves to share the stories of our rescued turkey residents.

“My favorite day at Farm Sanctuary has to be the Celebration for the Turkeys,” she says. “Turkeys are my favorite farm animal and having a whole celebration dedicated to them makes me feel so happy. Events like this are a really great way to show off the farm and the staff. I am always so proud to introduce our caregivers and grounds team to new volunteers and interns. Our staff is very friendly and accommodating.”

A young friend serves up one course from the turkeys’ delicious holiday meal during the 2016 Northern California Celebration for the Turkeys.

Of all of her beloved turkey friends, Rosie has stolen Liza’s heart the most.

“We have an agreement: Every time I’m in the turkey barn she gets a nice long turkey massage,” Liza says of her buddy. “With my hands under her wings, I am able to scratch that spot she can’t reach. She makes the sweetest little noises, fluffs out her feathers, and undeniably feels relaxed.”

Rosie turkey, an incredible ambassador for her species and beloved friend.

Liza’s relationship with Rosie exemplifies the difference we all can make when we put compassion first, and value what all beings have to contribute to this beautiful world that we share. As she works each day to forge connections between people and farm animals, she demonstrates the power of kindness to make a difference for others who need our help. We are so thankful for all that Liza does to inspire compassionate connections, and we’re honored to have her on our team as we work to give a voice to the voiceless and show that each and every animal is truly someone, not something.

Creamy Vegan Pasta Salad (Perfect for Summer!)

Hiya Gorgeous!

Here in the US, we’re about to celebrate one of the biggest holidays of the season—the Fourth of July. That means fireworks (don’t forget to care for your fur pals who might be afraid of the loud noises!), swimming, parades and extra time with the people we love most. And did I mention food? Cookouts/barbecues/feasts of all kinds, here we come!

Pasta salad is a must-have for any summer gathering, but it’s often heavy and laden with not-so-healthy ingredients. I believe that comfort food can be satisfying, indulgent, delicious AND great for you… and this Creamy Vegan Pasta Salad from my Test Kitchen is proof!

It’s everything you’ve ever wanted in a vegan pasta salad and more…

Packed with fresh veggies

Indulgent but won’t weigh you down

Perfect for meal prep or a make-ahead dish

A crowd-pleaser

Gluten-free, and can be made nut and night-shade free

Easy to make

Creamy and smoky

Fresh and summery

Loaded with plant-powered nutrients (more deets in a bit!)

Cheesy (sans the dairy)

And cool with a kick!

Here are some of the superstar ingredients in today’s recipe:

Chickpea pasta: Who says pasta can’t pack a protein punch?! We used Banza’s rotini, which has a whopping 14 g of protein in each 2-oz serving. You should be able to find Banza at your local health food store (especially at a place like Whole Foods), or you can order it in bulk here. This stuff makes a fabulous pantry staple!

Jicama: I was so excited when the Test Kitchen Tuesday crew suggested we feature this starchy root veggie in our vegan pasta salad recipe! Jicama was originally grown in Mexico, and it’s mild, subtly sweet flavor make it super versatile. It’s full of antioxidants like vitamins C and E, selenium and beta-carotene. Plus it contains inulin, a prebiotic fiber that’s good for your gut!

Corn: This gorgeous veggie has gotten a bad rap because of how it’s often farmed here in the states, but corn has a lot of nutritional value (not to mention flavor!) to offer. Just make sure to opt for the organic, non-GMO variety. Sweet corn is a good source of folate, potassium and lots of other wonderful nutrients.

Roasted red pepper: Red bell peppers aren’t just beautiful, they’re also great for you! They’re one of the richest dietary sources of vitamin C, which plays an important role in iron absorption, immune function and many other bodily functions. And roasting bell peppers is one of my favorite ways to eat them because it brings out their natural sweetness and adds a touch of smoky depth—the perfect addition to our vegan pasta salad!

Comfort food can be satisfying, indulgent, delicious AND great for you… and this #TestKitchenTuesday Creamy Vegan Pasta Salad is proof! Get the recipe!

And here’s my favorite part about this scrumptious recipe: It was inspired by elote, aka Mexican street corn. If you’re not familiar with elote, it’s a whole ear of corn grilled, covered with toppings like butter, chili powder, mayo and cotija cheese, and served on a stick (source). Some of those ingredients aren’t so Crazy Sexy friendly (though I have seen plant-based versions available at some restaurants—yay!). But we love the smokey, summery flavor profile of elote, so the Test Kitchen Tuesday team and I dreamed up this tantalizing twist!

Without further ado, let’s get to cookin’, good lookin’!

Creamy Vegan Pasta Salad

Serves 8 (about 1 cup per serving) | Prep time: 15 min | Cook time: 30 min

Pasta Salad Ingredients: 8 oz (224 g) gluten-free chickpea rotini pasta 3 tsp oil, divided 4 ears non-GMO corn (about 2 cups or 270 g kernels) 1 large red bell pepper 1 cup (180 g) halved cherry tomatoes 1 cup (120 g) chopped jicama or radishes 1 Hass avocado, chopped ¼ cup (4 g) chopped fresh cilantro 2 green onions, thinly sliced ½ fresh jalapeño, minced (optional)

Cashew Crema Dressing Ingredients: ¾ cup (90 g) raw cashew pieces, soaked, drained and rinsed 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast 1 garlic clove 2 Tbsp lime juice (about 2 fresh limes) ½ cup (120 ml) water ½ tsp smoked paprika 1 tsp salt ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions: 1. Prepare pasta according to package directions. Strain, rinse with cold water until completely cool and thoroughly drain.

2. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). On a baking sheet coated with 2 tsp oil, place ears of corn, husked and cleaned. On a separate baking sheet coated with 1 tsp oil, place red bell pepper. Roast for 30 min, rotating vegetables halfway through, until lightly charred all over.

3. While the vegetables roast and pasta cooks, prepare Cashew Crema Dressing. In a blender, combine all dressing ingredients and purée on high speed until completely smooth. Set aside.

4. Place roasted pepper in a paper bag and seal the top by rolling it closed. Let steam for 15 min before peeling the skin, removing the seeds and roughly chopping.

5. Using a serrated knife, slice kernels off each corn cob.

6. In a large bowl, combine pasta with corn, roasted pepper, tomatoes, jicama or radishes, avocado, cilantro, green onions and jalapeño (if using). Toss together with the dressing and serve immediately.

Notes: Storage tip: Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Simplify this recipe: Substitute ¾ cup vegan mayonnaise (such as Earth Balance’s Mindful Dressing and Sandwich Spread) or plain, unsweetened vegan yogurt (such as Kite Hill’s Plain Unsweetened Almond Milk Yogurt) instead of soaked cashews and water. Use frozen roasted corn and jarred roasted red pepper instead of roasting them yourself.

Make it nut-free: Substitute raw, shelled sunflower seeds for the cashews.

Make it nightshade-free: Substitute lightly steamed chunks of zucchini for the tomatoes. Opt for radishes instead of jicama.

Make-ahead tip: Store the salad and dressing separately, mixing together just before serving. You may need to add an extra splash of water to blend smoothly. Keep uncut avocado separate to avoid browning, chop and add to salad just before serving.

Nut soak note: If you have a high-speed blender, you can skip soaking your nuts or seeds. If you don’t have a high-speed blender, you can either soak your nuts or seeds in water for 4 hr, or you can do a “quick soak” by covering them with water in a pot and bringing it to a boil. Once the water boils, remove them from the heat and let them sit for an hour.

How To Prevent A Long Hauliday

People can dread the holiday for a variety of both simple and complex reasons. If it's loss. You may have had losses or trials in your life that overwhelm any attempts to commemorate; you keep in mind previous holiday with tears in your eyes. You're uncertain how you

're going to get to January and simply wish you could sleep til then. If

it's perfectionism ... You might put numerous excessively high demands on yourself, purchasing gifts, cooking elegant food, embellishing your home so that it's completely Pinterest-worthy. The pressure you place on yourself is immense. You have a million details on your mind. Aunt Molly is now gluten-free and eating Keto. Kid Joey, an animal rights advocate and fairly new vegan, won't touch the duck, the turkey or the sausage-laced stuffing. And Uncle Simon will get a little tipsy if dinner isn't served on time. You take it on yourself to make certain all are happy.

If it's family conflict ...

You could have strained relationships with your family, so the thought of seeing them might vary anywhere from difficult to irritating to uncomfortable. You're currently tired, answering the regular concerns-- "Are you getting together with family this year?" You might have stated you 'd go however the fear you have is palpable. Or you may be estranged from family which can bring relief or sadness, or both.

If it's depression and tension ...

There may be things going on in your life or your kids's that you 'd choose not to discuss or have individuals figure out. Even if those individuals love you and imply well, often you can be having a hard time with such pity or despair that it's hard to be vulnerable. You're not in a proud or protected emotional area, and you might feel as if all you wish to do is conceal. You may be experiencing another episode of anxiety or wave of panic. You may simply have been diagnosed with bipolar illness and be experimenting with a new medication.

If it's Seasonal Affective Disorder ...

To toss more fuel on the fire, numerous people, as the sun decreases faster and cold dismal weather condition comes our method, experience Seasonal depression. SAD is generally a mild or moderate despondency throughout the colder months that can be difficult to deal with.

If Your Vacation Appears More Like a "Hauliday"...

Here are some ideas to help.

Accept who you are and where you remain in life.

Accept your weak points, your household scenario, and where you are mentally. If you don't cook a lot, then your meal might not all come out at the very same time. No issue. Rolls make an excellent dessert and easy tastes just as great as made complex.

Offer yourself the present of taking a smaller role in any celebrations you might seem like participating in. Honor grief by going to a "Blue Christmas" church service, or whatever your particular faith might provide. Plan a personal routine of some kind to recognize how you are feeling. You might believe avoidance will help. However what is probably more valuable is honoring your sorrow while also staying as connected with those who like you as you can.

Delegate tasks to lighten your own load and keep your visitors inhabited.

If you are fretted that people may not get along or if you're stressed out about that many individuals remaining in your house, keeping people hectic assists keep order in your home. Ask your sis to baste the turkey and make the gravy, have Uncle Jack take the kids to the community park, demand for volunteers to set the table or established the buffet.

I always needed to pass out napkins at my grandmother's, a task that I felt demeaned my real talents. It most likely kept me out of the kitchen and my grandmother's hair, as I had to count them, fold them, and so on

. Recite a mantra every day. Remind yourself of what's most essential to you.

"It's only three hours. I can get through 3 hours."

"I will get done today all that I am expected to."

"He would desire me to enjoy what he liked a lot. It's all right if I cry."

Keep this as you go through your days as a tip that what you're experiencing is momentary, and that you can survive it. Since you will.

Plan ahead of time how you will address an unwanted question.

Consider the interaction variation of a bait and switch method; you nibble the bait, however then change your answer to finest serve your own convenience zone. You respond to without actually answering.

"Thanks so much for inquiring about Jenny-- I'll let her understand you did."

"It's sort of you to inquire about my task search, however today I 'd love to simply to concentrate on this yummy food!"

"I in fact do not miss out on being with my family on this holiday; I much prefer to be with the household I have actually built with my pals."

"I have actually had better times, but I'm here to enjoy myself today."

Do not feel obligated to provide requested information; even if you know they're asking out of authentic issue and not gossipy interest. You're enabled to retain whatever privacy makes you comfortable.

Bear In Mind That Contrast Robs You of Happiness.

Recognize that some people will put on a terrific show and everything will appear perfect. "Seem" is the important word there, since no one's life is best. Some folks need for others to believe it is, which could reflect that the reverse is really the truth.

I hope your Thanksgiving will not be the start of a long haul, however a day where you can breathe. Eat great food. Enjoy what you are able and be grateful for the important things that you can.

May you have a significant and satisfying Thanksgiving.
