The Holidays are here! Millions upon millions of people rush around looking for gifts to buy, decorate their homes, spend time with their family and friends and enjoy welcoming in the New Year with their loved ones.
Unfortunately, there is a flip side to this time of year…a dark side you might say. The holiday season is also the pinnacle of year in which an untold amount of individuals suffer depression, loneliness, and despair. It is during this point of time that the suicide rate around the world, is at its highest.
It is for this reason that I decided to share this video with you. Watch it to the very end. It is my hope and prayer that it will encourage and uplift you but most importantly, help you to realize that there is a simple beauty inside each one of us!
Thank you. I have lost loved ones at Christmas time, and I have not celebrated, but grieved. But, I know my strength is in Christ. This year I will be celebrating Christmas with my first grandchild, and from this, hope springs eternal.

This is so beautiful. I guess I am still surprised (disturbed?) by the fact that everyone was so absorbed in their darn cellphones that no one could experience the love and beauty she showed through her beautiful music. Merry Christmas, Coach. And thank you.

Beautiful Post! I totally am in agreement with loisajay. I couldn’t believe the way everyone was so self absorbed in their cell phones, not to notice or even hear the beauty which was sounding out around them. Really makes you wonder. Thanks, for sharing!
