Holidays are always the time portrayed as happy and everyone getting along.. but I know some of you are feeling a little lonely and depressed? Maybe families can not get together, some don't get along...or missing a loved one who has passed away... Anything I can do to help??

For the most part the hoildays are a happy time for me. But as you mentioned, I miss very much my father cousin grandmother. and brother in law who have died. I also can not be with my Mom this year wish has put a little blue into my holiday.
The fact that you let me say it and get it out and shed a tear or two has helped. Thank you
On a brighter note my youngest will be here, first time for ever she has made it for Christmas and she will be able to visit my Mom after.

That is sweet and you are so right. many people have lost loved ones or been rejected by family and this is a lonely depressing time of year. They don't realize there are so many others in the same boat. We all ought to take a hint from you and extend an invitation to a loner for dinner or an offer to go to them and bring coffee or hot chocolate and a snack.

I'm thankful, there are people like you.
I'm grateful to have what I need and want, but I worry about those who don't have their wants and needs met.
You are very kind.
I can picture you doing for those in need this special time of the year.
If we all do a little for someone else, a whole lot of nice things come to those in need.
"MERRY CHRISTMAS"

I think the ones of us that were so poor and really got excited about Christmas miss that feeling!!!! Something we'll never ll have again and I think we just now appreciate just how much our folks did without so we could have!!!
