On this day...

...count your blessings.

Remember all those who aren't drinking coffee in their pajamas side by side with their spouse, listening to Christmas music and watching their kids open presents under the lights of the tree.

Remember those who have sacrificed all that, for this year at least, in order to serve the rest of us half a world away.

And be sure to remember in your prayers those families for whom Christmas will never be the same.

Celebrate your good fortune, and remember those whose service protects you and yours.

Indeed, let's count our blessings, which at the top of the list for all the citizens of the Western Democracies should be our freedom, won and maintained by servicemen and women, past and present.

To all of them, a heartfelt thank you for my freedom and best wishes to you and your loved ones.
