It is almost Christmas and it means different things and emotions to different people. Some are celebrating Christ's birth and are spending time with family and friends. Others are very alone and some have almost no finances.
It is so sad that incidents of suicide increase everywhere on the planet over this time. We need to find hope for tomorrow always. Life is far to precious to give it up because of circumstances. Hope in tomorrow and above all, hope in Jesus Christ.
in Him things will turn around for the better.

So true and then you have the relatives that aren't well and they try and hold on for the last Thanksgiving or Christmas before they die :(
For the past couple years around this time is depressing for me.
I jst can't wait for the New Year.
But like a good mother that I am,I have to perk up and get my daughter in the holiday spirit so she want be like me.Lol
But it's also hard to get in the spirit when you have people who around this time is so desperate that they have to steal.Really brings you down. :(
