Editorial: A merry Christmas to all

It is with a heart brimful of love that we here at OBSERVER media wish all Antiguans and Barbudans a most delightful Christmas and a healthy, prosperous and happy New Year. May God’s choicest blessings ever descend on the flocks, fields and flowers of this fair land of ours! Of course, for our brothers and sisters from Barbuda, this Christmas will be a rather painful and unsettled one. Oh, how we wish that that were not so! Oh, how we wish that Barbudans could be back in their homes! And not spending Christmas in unfamiliar surroundings, and in situations that are less than optimal. We certainly hope that, sooner rather than later, our Barbudan kin will be back in their homes on their bit of paradise.
