That’s it, it’s December! Christmas has landed. Are you ready??
Christmas, and all its baubly, mulled-wine loveliness, is undeniably a wonderful time of the year; but let’s be honest, its in-your-face joy can also be a very real catalyst for many other less chipper emotions.
We’ve all been there at some point, unable to enjoy all the festive cheer because of one reason or another – whether it’s as trivial as not getting THE toy you wanted as a kid, right through to feeling deep and real sadness due to grief, loneliness, a break up, a tragedy (you get the picture). Christmas is a wonderful time for the happy ones, but it also shines a pretty twinkly light on some very raw and intense emotions for those less fortunate.
As many of us prepare to enjoy this wonderful time of year, let’s all take a minute to think about those who may need a little love – a friend, a family member, a colleague, a neighbour, someone in your community – there will be someone who needs that little pick me up.
So whether you’re looking to send a sweet Christmas kiss, or a gentle ‘I’m here’ hug, we’ve got you covered.
Look out for each other and keep spreading the festive love.
