From Mom's Note Book #5

Intro by Peter Salmond
This I believe will be very fitting for Christmas, because many people miss loved ones during this time, those from being separated by miles and those that are separated through death. We must realize at all times that our life on earth is what we allow God to make of it. He makes things so that...........

LIFE IS NEVER HOPELESS
(taken from mom's note book)

Life is never hopeless,
When there is someone needing you.
Life is never futile, when there is something you can do,
Or something you can say that will lighten someones burden
Or brighten someones day.

Don't give away to loneliness,
Depression or despair.
Just because you find you have
To face an empty chair,
You need to put someone there.

The world is full of people
There is much for which to live
Someone needs you.
Someone one wants the things
That only you can give.

My thoughts on the Subject
Christmas is a time to make new memories, with family and friends, we need to make memories that will count and linger in the minds of those we leave behind when we are gone. Things that will last forever in the minds of future generations. For me, Peter Salmond, one of the memories I have is Dad Salmond sitting in front of the Christmas tree on Christmas Morning and reading to us the true meaning of Christmas from God's word the Bible. Luke Chapter 2, then we could open our gifts.
