Greetings and welcome dear readers, Christmas is here and the #talentos team surprises us with this new initiative, where we think about the ideal gift that we can give and that will undoubtedly be of well-being, joy and harmony for the person who receives it.
So it is necessary to remember that Christmas is synonymous with sharing, reunion, family unity and celebration, where we pay homage to the man who gave everything for us, to the point of giving his life for the salvation of each of the beings that inhabit this earth, speaking specifically of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Consequently, the feeling and emotion that Christmas gives us is one of joy and sharing, and based on this, the exchange of gifts and emotions, accompanying the celebrations with good music, among which the bagpipes and Christmas carols stand out, give harmony and enjoyment to the Christmas festivities.

Now, if we return to the central theme of this publication, I confess that it has been difficult for me to identify that ideal gift, so that my thoughts have wandered, to the point of thinking about giving a physical good for some family members or otherwise generate a help for those in need and that would certainly bring them joy this Christmas holidays.
And even more, knowing that the economic conditions in our country is not the most favorable and that there are many people who for economic reasons will not be able to enjoy these great celebrations to the fullest.
So thinking about helping others this Christmas and taking those thoughts to the tangible is a way of remembering the spirit of solidarity, kindness and love of neighbor that Jesus Christ demonstrated at all times and how great it would be to share and teach by his example.

In this sense, I consider it is the best gift that we can extend to all humanity, to preach with our example and follow in the footsteps of our God. Undoubtedly, we are facing a great opportunity to demonstrate our quality of person that Christmas reminds us how much we can contribute to improve and help others.
Consequently, perhaps my previous statements may sound like something generalized, so I will try to be more specific about it and for this I have given myself the opportunity to think about family welfare, so I have decided to share a shortcoming that we as a family are presenting and that undoubtedly, in a way fragments us and does not allow us to achieve balance and greater enjoyment in our Christmas.
So that we can enter in context, it is necessary to highlight that my life is partially divided, since my family nucleus cohabits in a sector called Encontrados, Zulia, Venezuela where together with my wife and my children we share during the whole year and obviously in this space my wife's family is present.

On the other hand, my extended family, i.e. my mother and sisters, live a little over 45 minutes away and although time and distance seem like little, how difficult it has been all these years to be able to bring the family together as a whole.
Consequently, every year during the Christmas holidays I have the inconvenience of location and the uncertainty of spending December 24 and 25 with my wife and children but longing for my extended family to be with me and even worse, spending December 31 and New Year's Eve with my mother and wanting my children to be by my side.
Consequently, I still do not remember a year where we have all shared together, so for me and for my mother that would be the ideal gift, to be able to share as a family, to be able to achieve that extended meeting where she (my mother), can see play and enjoy each of her grandchildren in these special dates, it would certainly be an extraordinary gift which would allow us to grow as a family and enjoy our Christmas celebrations to the fullest.

Christmas really is a time for families and I hope that for you and your mother you are all able to get together so the grandmother can spend time with her grandchildren.
Looking back on my childhood Christmas times, that is what I remember, visiting my mothers parents, my grandparents.
Greetings @hive-106316, first of all thank you for taking the time to read my publication, without a doubt it would be a great gift to be able to share as a family but due to different situations we have not been able to do so.
I am glad that my publication has led you to remember your grandparents, as it is those memories that identify us as people.
@madridbg ojalá puedan reunirse, la vida está llena de momentos, y muchas veces los dejamos escapar sin darnos cuenta.
