People in chronic body pain, elders, sick, disabled, people using wheelchairs, people without a leg or legs, enduring pain as a constant companion, a body that hurts and does not stop hurting, a desire to walk but you only have one leg.
Complaints by these people to their doctors, doctors who have no miracle cures, pain medicine swallowed like chocolate flavored candy M&Ms, not healing, just aggravating the condition as these medicines lower body temperatures and make the body a place for infection to invade.
People with pain in their feet, feet being bound in cloth wrappings, a foot that cannot move in a special foot boot, a person who hobbles, a foot that is dragged along. A crutch to lean on instead of your leg, your leg then becoming weaker and weaker without use.
People on the winter Holidays who are told to enjoy them, but they are enduring physical pain and so enjoyment only comes when the pain decreases or lets up. A smile on someone's face that is actually a cringe from a sharp pain, a smile in reaction to this nerve stimulation.
Charity opportunities for these "smiling" people, a place to give, a place to fund another crutch for another person who hobbles. This winter Holiday season, to keep these people in your constant prayers and to give them something when what you own is two and can give away one.
A cold winter ahead for the poor who have no homes. A season to find these people and provide for them, to be a winter holiday season where everyone is happy and can enjoy it.
