Slightly different Christmas wishes for you ...

[David]

Hello all. Here we are again, Christmas .. out on Camino it seems that most of us cannot do enough for each other ... back home, in the 'real' world not all of us remember to be like this ...

I am ok, I am in the bosom of my family for Christmas .. but, for others, there is still time - no excuses, there are always too many excuses, let no parent be alone on Christmas Day ... not one ...

In your Hearts, and in your Homes, Peace - and a Merry Christmas to you all

David you once again posted something that puts tears in my eyes.

Thank you for everything you do on this Forum and of course what you do twice a year for Pilgrims on the Camino.

May you enjoy a prosperous and healthy New Year and a Merry Christmas.

This is such a beautiful (but sad) statement about our collective priorities. Thank you David. This brought a big lump in my throat.
My parents are both gone and I'd do a whole lot to have Christmas with them once again. That's impossible but at least I am glad to have no remorse.

Thank you for this beautiful reminder of how we get so caught up in the busyness of growing up and living that we forget our parents are growing older in the meantime...

A touch of the Camino in our alternative worlds - to live a full life of no regrets...

Wishing you and those you love a wonderful Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year.

Be Well. Go Well.

Thank you for this beautiful message of the season. I now live with my 92 yr old mother who is starting to fail with blood cancer. Every day is a blessing that I have her here. We are preparing for my Camino together which I will take after her passing. Many of us are so blessed but get lost in the peripheral fluff, thank you for drawing us back to the essential. Happy Holidays!

Thank you David, for this reminder, the remarkable thing is opportunities appear for each of us to honour parents, be they our own, or someone elses. We just need to be as open as we were on our camino to the needs of others.
Blessings to you this Christmas and to all on this Forum a Peacful Christmas to everyone.

Thank you for posting this very Heartfelt and Moving little Video which reminds us that there is really never enough time - we should not keep putting off until tomorrow, what we both can and should do today, not only with our own families but with others out there who may be alone and hurting, especially at this time of the year. David, I send Warm Greetings and Wishes to you and your Loved ones and also Thank you for the work you do each year out on the Camino.
