Being That “Someone”

While riding on “The Tube” in London recently, I noticed this sign:

In case the text in the photo is a little blurry or too small for you, here’s what it says:

No one should have no one at Christmas

No one to hang the tinsel with. Or mistletoe for that matter.  No one to share a sherry, a gift or cracker.  No one to say Happy Christmas to.  Or bring you mince pies in bed.  No one to make one day any different from the rest. No one, but no one, should have no one at Christmas. 

The sign was sponsored by Age UK, and the final line is an encouragement to reach out to someone  “older” who is lonely.  Good words for any time of the year….
