Merry Christmas to everyone who follows us, believes in us, and to every person we have the privilege of supporting 💙🎄
Just a little message to say — today will feel different for every one of us, and that’s part of what makes it human.
For some, the day is full of laughter, warmth, and familiar faces. If you’re with your children today, it’s not just your Christmas — it’s a piece of their childhood being written. The moments you’re present for now are the memories they’ll carry forward. No perfection needed. Just being there matters.
If you’re not seeing your children this year, remember the incredible truth that you brought them into this world. That bond doesn’t disappear. The story isn’t finished — relationships evolve, seasons change, and time has a way of opening doors. It does get better.
If you’re remembering loved ones, honour them by living fully and creating new memories that carry their love forward.
And if today is peaceful and solitary, there is beauty in that too — in breath, in presence, in choice, and in the simple gift of being alive, with a future still unwritten and blank pages waiting for your story 🖋️
Be present. Today is a gift — that’s why it’s called the present.
You’re alive. You can breathe. Feel the air. Notice the light. Make choices in this moment.
And maybe, just for a second, have a quiet chuckle to yourself and think:
“With all I’ve been through… I’m still standing. I made it. I never gave up.”
Look at what life threw at you — and it still didn’t break you.
That matters.
This is the feast after the battle.🫡
So enjoy the day. You’ve earned it. 🤝💙🎄
