“It’s a morning for the true believers”
Photo: 23rd December 2025. Pōhutukawa: our New Zealand Christmas tree.
My favourite tree. ❤️
It’s a morning for the true believers
the man says to me
with a wide smile
as we pass each other in the torrential rain on our morning exercise.
His words struck me in the heart.
I gathered them up and stored them away
somewhere safe where I could access them
at regular intervals.
May you find a place where you believe.
Where no matter what is going on
you can return again and again
and discover peace and joy and solace.
Wishing you a very happy Christmas.
Thank you so much for your support dear Readers and Writers.
This community is very special indeed.
With Love

Favourite Christmas song. Tears every time. ❤️




Hey Jo, what a beautiful tree ❤️. Hope you have a great Xmas. Was just talking about that song with a friend last night … don’t forget to add a teaspoon of Vegemite 🙏😂🖤. Sending love 💛
Jo, I hold on to the thought that every new day is for believers!
Mornings are for renewal and rebirth for beauty and the belief that all will be well in the world despite rain falling in torrents or a sun burning to hot, or even catkins and snowdrops in December... hold tight to the mans words dear one, they are important and priceless.
I send you love on this day after Christmas, I hope your day burned brightly and was filled with all the joy you dreamed of. Sending you much tardy love 🫶🏼xx
