Don't forget about those who are unwell

Happy Holidays to everyone at SteemIt!

If you celebrate Christmas or Festivus or nothing at all, no matter, I want you to have a wonderful time, getting together with your friends and family - have fun, enjoy your gifts!

but I have a special request for you:

someone you know may be unwell, staying sick at home or in hospital - please find time to visit them. It is really sad and depressing to see someone lying in bed, staring at the curtains, all alone during the Holidays. We've been enjoying SteemIt, posting and commenting and powering up, but at some point you and I will be in their place, powering down, I can guarantee you that! Then you will discover that life is not all about crypto, new phone, car or game console.

So come as you are, no special gifts to bring, just sit down and talk and listen and give them a big hug before leaving!

We try to make it feel festive, even in hospitals, but it is not the same without you!

Living with a chronic illness for years I spent many Christmases feeling less than human. I was always glad to have friends and family that went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and part of the celebrations.

Thank you for sharing this @insideoutlet! I believe it could be as strong as any medicine we can offer, if not stronger, to have your friends and family with you when you are unwell.
