This has been a hard year for all. In some way shape or form we have all been affected by the pandemic. We wanted to write a special blog this year to give tribute to those lives that have been lost, to those who have lost their jobs, to those who have lost their homes, and to those who have endured many hardships over the last year. We have all been affected and we would like to take a moment to think of how we can stand united and be there for one another.
We also no that one should be alone this holiday season. We want to encourage you to find a place to spend the holidays so you can share in comfort, joy and love. If you know someone who is going to be alone during the holidays, maybe invite them over for a portion of the holidays. If you are going to be alone, reach out and ask for support, whether to people you know or through your community resources. If we extend our hands to support one another we can all make a huge difference this year in making sure that everyone is feeling loved and supported this holiday season and has hope for what the new year will bring.
Every little bit we can give to one another helps. Whether you buy a cup of coffee for a stranger, you give a little extra tip to the guy or girl at the Tim Horton’s counter, or you invite a friend over you haven’t seen in years that you know will be spending Christmas Day alone, we encourage you to reach out in even just a little way. If we all do our part over the holiday season we can make a huge difference in the lives of many.
Let’s create a wave of Christmas joy through kindness and love to all those around us, so we can all see the start of new beginnings as we end 2021 and move into 2022. Let’s make this a Christmas to remember. From our families to yours we wish you a very happy holiday season. May your wishes come true, and may you find peace and happiness through the Christmas season and beyond. Merry Christmas everyone!
