Well we are down to the twelve days to Christmas, no please, don't start humming the song!         

We are all thinking about the last gifts we need to get, and making sure we didn't forget anyone when we sent out our greeting cards. This is also the time we start refecting on the past twelve months and longer, hoping that we did all we could to make life just a little better for the ones we hold closest to our heart.

During the year we all have, I'm sure, found things happening in our life and others lives that just wanted to make us stand up and shout, "Could this all please just stop". It is discouraging at times when those with the means, position and power just don't step up and do something. Can't they hear us.

So if you were such a person of means, position, or power, just what would you change, stop, or cause to happen that would make people stop what they were doing, look up, listen and pay attention.

For me, the list as they say goes into next week. If I had to pick one thing it would be to remind everyone everywhere, that one of the most important things if not the only thing we have to do everyday of our life is protect and keep our children safe. As a world, we just are not doing a very good job of it. If we would just work on that, just think of the possibilities.

So here's your chance folks, say just as little or as much as you feel necessary but, and this will be hard, just one thing. There is alot of things going on in the world that need our help and attention, take a stand, let your voice be heard.

Have a Happy Holidays everyone.
