A really good idea for a Christmas gift

My Son In-law came up with a really good idea for what he wanted for his Christmas gift this year.

Instead of gifts this year, I’d much rather you helped people get access to clean water…wanna help?

With Christmas coming up, I’ve been asked for a wishlist a few times. I hadn’t already put one together, and I kept on stalling when I was asked. For some reason, I just really didn’t want to spend my time window shopping for things that I might want others to give me.

But there’s some people that genuinely want to give me something I’d love for Christmas…so I decided to think for a bit about what I really wanted. Here’s the wish list I came up with:

Bless people in need with fresh water

That’s it, that’s my wish list for this year. I really don’t want anyone to buy me things this year—I simply don’t need more stuff. But I do want to others to have an opportunity to give. While I live a very comfortable life, there are so many people in far more need of basic necessities like water. So this year I’ve asked my loved ones to donate to charity:water in my behalf instead of giving me a present.

I always wish me “nothing” for Christmas, but I never get it.
I think this is an good alternative for next year.
