While it's true that not every child gets a present or even celebrates Christmas, and it's possible that millions of children go without any celebratory moments on Christmas day, it's an opportunity for those of us who are "okay" to give a gift or two because we can.
Not every child is fortunate enough to have one or two parents or the nurturing environment that all of us assume is "just a reality." One thing, however, remains true no matter whether it is Christmas or not: those of us who know we are fortunate and feel grateful want to extend compassion on special occasions to others.
Every day is a struggle for children in need in a world that often marginalizes them at critical times when they most need inspiration and a little spark of welcomed excitement.
Giving a gift on Christmas won't fix a child's circumstances but think about it, there is a moment in all our lives when we "recognized something wonderful happened" that energized us, made us resolute with inner power to go after our dreams. A moment in time, like receiving a special gift, can change the direction of a little life for the better. Maybe, that one spark we received was enough to jumpstart years of effort to succeed.
So, this Christmas, or this holiday season, consider reaching out and helping just a little bit to bring joy to some who will be excited to receive a gift they likely never expected to receive.
Happy Holidays to you and yours!
If you celebrate Xmas, Merry Christmas!
