This Holiday Season

Take time to remember
Humble yourself, take a stand
Inspire someone, reach out
Share from your own hand

Hunger and misery
Oblivious are we
Living like king and queens
In this world we do not see
Daily interactions that we could 
Allow ourselves to help out
You can make a difference, there is no doubt


Single and together
Embrace all that you hold dear
Accept that life is not perfect
Season is almost here
Outlove your worst fear
Night is dark but Christmas is near

brilliant acrostic - it is a time to reach out and help others - we have so so much yet get more and more and don't really appreciate it yet there are others who have nothing - such a wide divide- great write:-) hugs jan xx
