The festivities are often a time when
we gather with family and friends and spend time celebrating together. However
not everyone will get the opportunity to be with their families over the
holidays.
I remember when growing up my late
Father would often be working a shift over the holiday period. He would not
only miss out on the excitement of Christmas morning, but would often return
later that evening to eat his re-heated Christmas dinner, long after everyone
else had eaten and had now retired to watch television or play games. I
remember him sitting at the table, still in his uniform, eating his dinner
whilst other family members passed through the kitchen wishing him a belated Merry
Christmas.
So as we come up to the Christmas and
New Year holidays please take a moment to spare a thought for the Emergency
Services, Hospital Staff, Military Personnel and others who will be away from
their families and working to protect the public and save lives this Christmas.
On behalf of everyone associated with Bluegem Learning I’d like to wish you all a very happy
and peaceful holiday season.
