I wish I had more to give.
@Tail You might be surprised how little it takes: a kind word. extra effort.
How are you? What would you like to give more of?
@meuon I'm okay, just wish I could help lessen people's burdens. Kindness does go a long way but it doesn't pay bills or buy food you know?
The winter is a rough time. At the very least I wish I had the means to give Christmas gifts but I don't.
@Tail I was less than dirt poor much of my life. I understand. Gotta eat, stay warm, etc.. There are also very few physical gifts that mean much. Do what you can and want to: Merry Christmas.
@meuon @Tail Being there for people is a gift too. I mean idk about your situation or who you want to gift but many years with a lot of kids and bills didn't have much for holidays. But it really doesn't take a lot to impress kids or older people. Taking them to the library, offering to build a snowman with them or surprising people with a snowman, going sledding down hills on cardboard boxes we got from the store. Helping out with some project like shoveling snow. Reading to people.
@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine @meuon yeah, those are all good points. I'm more reminiscing about when I was a kid and still had a family. Actually got to participate in the holidays. These days I'm all alone out in the middle of nowhere. All my friends are thousands of miles away.
@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine maybe someday 🙏
@Tail @meuon oh dang. Well i hope you can find some way. ❤️
