Well, the holidays are here again with many folks
wondering what to get for the special people in their lives. Every year it’s
the same; fight the traffic, crowds, make a hectic sprint to the store before
the fat man in the red suit arrives. Yep, another tie, ugly sweater, horrible
fruitcake and another glutinous meal with all the crazy relatives from the last
30 years. That’s all well and good but Christmas means a little more than that.
Maybe this year, you can have a Christmas and
celebrate the holidays in a way that reflects the true meaning of the season.
Maybe you could skip all the commercial garbage and spend some time with a relative
in a nursing home, hospital or with a shut in neighbor. You might even take
them a meal and make sure they have something to eat and someone to talk with
for an hour.
Instead of another piece of balsa or M motor you put
some money on an elderly friend’s electric or gas bill. Lots of people could
use some help with heat right now. If you want to do something in the real
spirit of the season, find a homeless person and take them a coat. Put a few
candy bars in the pockets with a bottle or two of water or go to a homeless shelter
and volunteer for an afternoon.
If you are reading this most likely you have a warm
place to stay, food, a coat and probably a friend or two. Millions don’t have
anything.
You don’t have to help a million people, just pick
one, and remember animal shelters take a big hit this time of year, don’t forget
the furry friends who have no one.
Am I trying to spoil your holidays and make you
feel bad? Not at all, in fact, going out and doing just one of the few things
I’ve listed here might help you to have the best Christmas / holidays you’ve
ever had. There’s nothing that makes you feel better than helping someone who
can’t return the favor, except doing it anonymously.
This month Fire & Smoke is short and to the point. While it may sound old fashioned or even
be unpopular with some people, truth is still truth; Jesus, is the reason for the season. He is the greatest gift of all!
This year YOU be the gift and just consider helping 1 person. You won't be sorry.
From our house to yours...
Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!

Verna Starr Cestris Fighter!
This is our favorite Sirius kit, the Cestris.
The kit is intended to fly on a single engine but it was easily modified to a 3 engine cluster complete with Verna Starr fighter
decals, also available from Sirius.
