The Party Place

This is a superb, joyous time of the year for most folk, but there are still the ones that find this the most forsaken and depressing season of all. It is often said that more suicides happen in the vacations due to depression and solitude. As the vacations swiftly approach, some find that isolation and depression takes over their lives. No pity parties this year, do something for some other person, volunteer your time, go to your local destitute shelter and work the serving line, fullfill a demanding childs Yuletide wish, visit the aged in a care home. Here's a thought look in your wardrobe, is there a coat you do not wear any more.

Right before serving, pour half of the blend into a chilled massive punch bowl. Put out plates of home made sweet bread like banana bread, pumpkin bread and brownies.

Gloomy and lonesome as this time of the year could be for some, remember, there are the ones that have a lot less than you, and the unhappiness that fills their lives is the absence of daily survival must haves. Share your heart and your love and whatever else that you can give, for whatever you give, you'll get in turn.
