The Poet-in-Residence Ebola Virus Christmas e-Card can be emailed together with your personal seasonal greetings to any place in the world with internet access. You may like to consider making a donation to a charity such as Doctors Without Borders, although this is not compulsory. If you would rather support a local charity you can easily find worthy causes in your local vicinity. My personal charity donation today was to press a few coins into the hand of a homeless man searching for cigarette stumps in the gutter. There but for the grace of God(?) go I.

Mine today was a young man standing outside our very large M and S with a bucket collecting for Teenage Cancer. All these causes are so worthwhile - and it certainly makes me feel good giving to them whenever I can.
ReplyDeleteEvery penny counts.
DeleteInteresting drawing, neither male nor female. I bought some cards and made some but not yet sent an e card. Christmas is a strange festival and religion is lost to most.
ReplyDeleteA strange festival indeed. By the way I've now added size / materials etc..
DeleteI noticed. I think it is important and it makes me remember that I have not done it on my drawing of Mum and Me. Perhaps I can let myself off on this occasion. Christmas is a time of diverse views.
DeleteYou can definitely let yourself off. Christmas is a multi-layered festival with ancient roots. I think it's a time to reflect and perhaps to look forward. After Christmas the days get longer again in our hemisphere.
