GOD BLESS YOU ALL AT CHRISTMAS TIME !

IF YOU EVER NEED A JOLLY GOOD CRY ...HEAD FOR AN AIRPORT AT CHRISTMAS TIME ....

AIRPORTS ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE TEEMING WITH FAMILIES ...MOMS... DADS CHILDREN .. ALL COMING OR GOING... AND THERE ARE TEARS GALORE AS THEY ALL MAKE EXTRAORDINARY EFFORTS TO 'COME HOME FOR CHRISTMAS"

AS THE PARENTS OF THREE ZIMBABWE EXILES, WE SPEND A LOT OF TIME AT AIRPORTS OVER THE CHRISTMAS PERIOD ... IT IS SO JOYOUS, SO POIGNANT ... SO SPECIAL .. TO SEE FAMILIES RE-UNITED AT THIS MOST SPECIAL TIME OF THE YEAR....

ONE DAY, GOD PERMITTING ... THIS MASS EXODUS OF OUR CHILDREN WILL CEASE AND WE WILL ALL BE TOGETHER AGAIN ... YES, GENERATIONS OF US ... ALL IN THE SAME COUNTRY

WHERE THE LIONS ROAM FREE,.... WHERE THE BAOBAB STANDS SUPREME ...WHERE THERE IS SPACE AND PEACE AND SPIRIT...

WHERE WE CAN RAISE OUR FAMILIES IN THE CLEAN FRESH AIR WHERE MODERN DANGERS SEEM TO STAY AWAY..... AND TRUE VALUES ARE KEPT SACRED AND STRONG...

RIGHT HERE WHERE WE BELONG.....IN THIS LAND THAT WE ALL LOVE SO MUCH.

May the peace, joy and love of Christmas be in your hearts and in your homes always.
