Did Santa pay you a visit recently? If so, how did you react? With glee or with gravitas?

How you reacted points to how you are likely to respond to what awaits you in the coming year.

A few of us are such control freaks that we fixate on the one outcome we want, the must-have gift, to the extent that we become visibly annoyed if we don’t have our way. Some of us are attached to the outcome we want and find it difficult to hide our disappointment.

Others are so detached from outcome that they live with passive acceptance and resignation of whatever happens. Then there are those who are open to outcome and receive graciously whatever is given.

Only a few of us are in open anticipation of outcome, visibly excited to engage with any surprise the universe may offer.

So, how did you approach your great unwrapping?

Welcome to my side of the nonsense divide.
