Tonight, many of us will sit with our families, share a warm meal, raise a glass, and enjoy moments of laughter and joy.

But just for a moment, I’d like to ask you to pause—and say a prayer.

A prayer for those facing hardship across the world.

A thought, if not a prayer. A wish.

For the children.

For the adults.

And yes—for the animals too.

Maybe, if we all wish hard enough…

A miracle might happen.

After all—

Christmas is still a time of magic.

Merry Christmas to all souls around the world .
