Christmas wishes!
Merry Christmas, everybody!
Especially to those who've worked hard all year and deserve the day off. And to those who deserve a day off but will be working anyway.
To the nurses, the doctors, the firemen, the police, mothers and fathers, everyone who works so hard to make the day special: THANK YOU!
Christmas is the act of loving.
Remember this when you open your presents, when you're eating your Christmas dinner, when you're pulling a cracker: seeing isn't necessarily believing; sometimes the things which are most real are the ones that we can only feel.
So instead of asking your parents or Father Christmas for a new iPhone, etc, remember the less fortunate out there. Think of the simple joys that some wish for but can't have. And by LESS FORTUNATE, I don't necessarily mean those in third world countries: I mean anyone who doesn't have what you have.
Think of those people stuck in hospital, possibly waiting for an organ donor, not wanting to wish harm to anyone to get it. Maybe sign up to be an organ donor this Christmas (even though the Opt-out system is so much better) and give these people the gift of hope!
I hope you're happy this holiday, and warm. And content with what you have :) I know I have everything I could possibly wish for (well… maybe not but dissatisfaction runs in the human genes so...!)
Don't forget to laugh and have fun! And be safe!

One foot in the rave
One foot in the rave: The £20,000 hi-fi coffin that plays music on a loop so you can listen to your favourite tunes in the afterlife
The CataCombo Sound System is the brainchild of Swedish inventor Fredrik Hjelmquist, who says some people believe a beautiful melody 'can reach beyond our senses'.
