Helping others become even better versions of themselves
The night is cold
The wind is chilling
The air is frosty
Snow is falling
Whiteness everywhere
Cloudy sky
I’m on my bench
I’m hungry
I’m cold
Without a home
Without a family
Without a Christmas
There between the clouds
A fading star
Like my life, it will go out
Out from the darkness
Comes the light
A friendly face to help
A thought for all
Who are in the dark
Where their light is going out
Extend some kindness
Give some time
Save a person from the dark
Today is a special day, a day when for most the world stops it’s daily grind and people come together.
We give gifts, we eat together, we watch favourite films, play games, laugh and have fun.
Amongst it all, it’s great to take a break, away from the festive celebrations and take a winter walk in the woods.
The peace of this day can truly be appreciated walking out among nature and away from the hustle.
Merry Christmas, enjoy the time with the people who matter, remember we are together with them for a limited time, cherish the ones you love.
