Christmas is upon us – do we have to tolerate selfish?

It saddens me that while many in the World will supp and gorge to excess that to so many it will be just another day of toil or misery in just existing.

I think of the poor kids who can expect nothing except more abuse and pain, of parents denying themselves in order to feed their young, etc. On the other hand I can think of so many who will live in lavish fashion with not a thought for anyone else.

We have tended, collectively, to have selective concerns!

It seems to be more than an ounce of  justice that many of those gorging to excess will endup shortening their lives through their excesses. Sure we should enjoy the festive season but perhaps more of us could better recognise the unfortunates of this World.
