The first-foot through the door each year sets the tone for the rest of the year.
There’s an old tradition; they say it comes from Scotland, that the first person through the door each new year sets the tone for the rest of that year. Because of that, I wanted this to be my first post for the new year.
If this is your first time reading counselorssoapbox.com, I hope this post will start off your year in a good direction. Longtime readers will know that this blog’s premise is having a happy life.
Life can have its struggles. At some point in their life, everyone is likely to experience a mental, emotional, or behavioral issue. Because of this, I write a lot about mental health, mental illness, substance use disorders, and overcoming the bumps on the road of life. Here is hoping that this new year will bring happiness to you and yours.
Throughout this year on counselorssoapbox.com I plan to bring you tips about having a happy life, coping with emotional and mental issues, and the impact that using and abusing substances might have on your mental and emotional health.
We will also present posts to help you with being a success. However, you define that success. With over 2000 posts on counselorssoapbox.com so far, you’ll find plenty of tips in the past posts with more to come this year. You might even want to consider subscribing to counselorssoapbox.com.
Thanks for being my lucky first-foot this year.
P.S. If it takes you a while to get around to reading this post I will understand. Whenever you get to it, please drop me a line.

Christmas Eve
Sunday Inspiration. Post by David Joel Miller.
“Christmas Eve is my favorite… I think the anticipation is more fun than anything else. I kind of lost that. The idea that something – food, traditions, an arbitrary date on the calendar – can be special because we decide it should be. We make it special. Not just for ourselves, but for others.”
― Kiersten White, My True Love Gave to Me: Twelve Holiday Stories
“SEEN IT ALL, HEARD IT ALL, DONE IT ALL. JUST CAN’T REMEMBER IT ALL.”
― Lisa Kleypas, Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor
“You’ll wake up soon. It’s Christmas Eve morning. And I loved you.”
― Fredrik Backman, The Deal of a Lifetime
“There was something about Christmas Eve, they both felt, that demanded company; one needed somebody to whisper to, during the warm beautiful dream-taut moments between hanging the empty stocking at the end of the bed, and dropping into the cosy oblivion that would flower into the marvel of Christmas morning.”
― Susan Cooper, The Dark Is Rising
Wanted to share some inspirational quotes with you. Today seemed like a good time to do this. There are an estimated 100,000 words in the English language that are feelings related. Some emotions are pleasant, and some are unpleasant, but all feelings can provide useful information. I’ve also included some words related to strengths and values since the line between what we think and what we feel may vary from person to person. If any of these quotes strike a chord with you, please share them.
Look at these related posts for more on this topic and other feelings, strengths, and values.
