I have this sudden urge ... what you would call an unconrollable urge to be nice. Now all those that know me realise this is out of character and I promise I won't let it happen again.

I would like to Wish Everybody a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year ... and To all of you of other cultures and religious beliefs may your sacred days be joyous too.

Now I would like everbody to spare a thought for all the lonely people in this world. Christmas can be a very sad time for these people. It is hard enough surviving from day to day especially if your homeless and or friendless and to see all the festivities drive the point even deeper.

So lets just give a moment of our time in thought for all the lonely people in this world.

Thank you all for reading this

I was driving yesterday while it was snowing and I had the heater all the way up and my seat warmers on.... As I was driving, I went through an industrial area and I noticed a man sitting in a corner around a dumpster. He was wearing a T-shirt, and he was holding a bottle. I could nearly see his face because of the bad weather. It was 27 degrees F.

I could not help him. I just felt sorry and sad for him. Sometimes in life we worry about things that really don't matter.

That's nice of you to have thought about the lonely people in this world. I do wish that somehow all of them can meet up with each other and never be lonely again.

i thought this quote was beautiful, although its only words...
"Inside myself is a place where I live all alone and that's where you renew your springs that never dry up."

people can feel alone all through the year, no matter how rich or powerful you are, loneliness is something that can happen to anyone. never forget it.

Still want me to call you Doc?

hehe, Merry Christmas folks!

You are right dude but with one baby in the back seat, another 5 year lod in the back and my wife there really wasn't any room.

You have to realize that the man was right there, sitting/drinking instead of looking for shelter.... Didn't look like he could engage into a dialogue.
