Abundance describes how Christmas used to be when my children were small, many years ago. I always tried to get the one thing they wanted more than anything else, and then the stockings were overfilled and their favorite. Today a local news article reported the homeless shelter here in the city was ransacked and trashed by a few residents, causing it to be closed til next year and repairs could be made and afforded. Volunteers showed themselves in abundance, for construction, appliances, and repairs. This is the meaning of Christmas.

This is sad that some people destroyed what gave shelter to them, or people like them. I’m glad that the community is coming forward to help
Rebuild it. A lovely poem Cheryl
