Christmas Cactus.

This was given to me a few years ago by a lady, who had traipsed to pick up a parcel, from the depot on Christmas Eve, as I had done, only to find that it had moved to another location. We walked together to the bus stop and waited in the drizzly, freezing cold, to go on another journey. I felt so fed up as I'd already travelled on two buses, then she delved in her shopping bag, handed me this plant and said, " Have this, Merry Christmas," I never saw her again after we finally got our parcels, but I shall always remember her kindness. The message of a Christmas Cactus is, Faith and Hope.
