As a kid, I had magical, picture perfect Christmases. The stockings by the fire, the gifts beneath the tree, and a beautiful, loving family to make it all warm and incredibly special… But the next day? I was in a world of disappointment, depression, and despair because I could never cope with the fact that everything was suddenly over. I was clinging to the past.
Today’s episode of Sex, Love, and Elephants is a front row seat to one of my holiday Dharma Talks.
Tune in and learn how we still have lessons to learn from Santa Claus and the Grinch—even as adults.
In This Episode, You Will Learn:
Every time you think you've found the one who's gonna keep you happily ever after, it’s a variation on the Santa Claus effect (08:16)
The true heart is inside and whether all our beautiful things are there to share with people we love or none of our things are there we can still share what matters (23:41)
It's not about stuff, It's not about winning, it’s about love. It's about the light of compassion, kindness, community, and generosity (25:26)
Every time we love anything, we're going to hurt (32:15)
More often than not, we're simply ignorant—we forget to remember to give, we forget to remember to judge less and love more (45:11)
