[quote:~Una~:MV8yNDQwNTc1XzQxOTQ3NzQ3XzZCQkJENjhE] [quote:indiandave:MV8yNDQwNTc1XzQxOTQ3MDI0X0ExQTczNjM0] My wife died about six years ago. Christmas is still a very hard time for me. I don't put up any Christmas stuff. I try to avoid all things Christmas. My wife really enjoyed this time of year. Now it just makes me sad. [/quote] Aw I am truly sorry to hear of your loss IndianDave. :hugs: I am sorry that this time of year causes you to feel the loss more keenly as well. I am sending you some energy to help you through should you wish. Please feel free to take what you need. Much love to you. [/quote]

about this prison that we call 'reality'. Is seeing people in pain, of any description.
This time of the year is particularly hard on people, especially those who do not have family or friends that can be around them.
Especially when everywhere you look or hear the media in every form, is shouting out how this is a time for family and friends - a time to spend all your money and put yourself in debt, because you should - after all it is Christmas!
Christmas can be a particularly hard and sad time for them. It exacerbates their feelings of loneliness, or their struggles with their health, or their loss of loved ones.
So my heart goes out to them all the more at this time when they are acutely aware of what they do not have in their lives.
Much love to you all
