The Ones The Wolves Pull Down - a photo on Flickriver

♫ Wolves by Garth Brooks♫

When I was thinking about this pic the other night I knew I wanted to do one more Christmas themed capture this year. I thought about all the sexy and hopefully humorous things I could do. Of course my phone was ringing and I was getting all kinds of messages from my family and friends. My kids, especially my oldest was, and is running around the house so excited about Santa. I had some things cooking for Christmas dinner that night and was just about finished with my wrapping, thank goodness.

So as I tried to decide on a shot for my Flickr it hit me how lucky I am. How blessed I am. And how so many aren't right now. I thourght about that depressed person alone and scared. The person in the hospital because of some bad news. I wonder about those people who can't afford much this year or much of anything at all. Maybe they're even without a home. There's a woman out there today who just lost her husband and this is her first Christmas without him since she was a young girl. There's a man who just lost his dad or mom. And there's a couple who've lost their child, maybe just today. Maybe there's someone who's alone this Christmas because they lost their pet, maybe they had to say goodbye to them just this morning. Somewhere, maybe just a couple miles away, an older person is alone with all her memories of Christmas' gone by, stuck in a rest home, so alone all she can think about is letting go.

This is a time of year many of us celebrate the birth of a savior. And in the spirit of Christmas, I'm challenging myself and everyone who reads this to reach out to someone, anyone you know or even don't know. Someone needs us right now. Today. Sometimes just saying Merry Christmas or letting someone know you're thinking about them can save a life.

Merry Christmas everyone.
