There was a time
When british olympic method winners became hasehold names
Because there was so few of them
But the sixty seven medals at this years games in rio and one hundred and forty seven at the parolyympics meant that the gb medalist reception at backing in palace was a crowded unhappy event throughout the commonwealth that were equally joyful celebrations
Grennade
The baham's jmaka and new zealand one more medals per head of population than any other countries
Many of this year's winners spoke who are inspiired by athletes of previous generations inspiration fed the aspiration and having discovered the abilities
They scarcely knew they head these athletes are now inspiring others
A few months ago
I saw inspiration of a different kind
When i open the new cambridge base of the east angelan air ambuance ance
Where prince william works as a helicopter pilot
It was not hard to be moved by the dedication of the highly scale doctors
Paramedics and cruel who are called out on average five times a day
But to be inspirational
You don't have to save lives or win medals
I often draw strength from meeting
Ordinary
People doing extraordinary things
Volunteers
Carros community organizers and good neighbors
Unsung heros who is quite dedication makes them special
They are an inspiration to those who know them and their lives
Frequently embody a truth expressed by mother terrazor from this year saank terrazor of kelcutter
She once said
Not all of us can do great things
But we can do small things with great love
This is been the experience of two remarkable organisations
The due comvenmbers award and the prince's trust which are sixty and forty years old
This year these started a small initiatives
But have growed beyond any expectations and continue to transform young people's lives
To mark my ninety of thbirthday volunteers and supporters of the six hundred charities of which i have been patron came to a lunch in the male many of these organizations are modest and size
But inspire me with the work they do from giving friendship and support to our veterans
The elderly or the beived detempioning music and dance providing animal welfare all protecting our fields and forest
There's self self ststrivation and generosity of spitit is an example to us
All when people face a challenge
They sometimes talk about taking a deep breath to find courage or strength in fact
The word in spar
Literally means to breain
But even with the inspiration of oers
It's understandable that we sometimes think the world's problems are so big
That we can do little to help on our own
We cannot end wars or wipe pe out injustice
But the cumulative impact of thousands of small acts of goodness can be bigger than we imagine at christmas
Our attention is drawn to the birth of a baby
Some two thousand years ago
It was a humblest beginnings and his parents
Jjsie and mary did not think they were important
Jesus christ lived obscurely for most of his life and never travelled far
He was maliined and rejected by many though he had done there wrong and yet to billions of people now follow his teaching and finding him the guiding light for their lives
I am one of them
Because christ's example helps me see the value of doing small things with great love
Whoever does them
And whatever they themselves believe the message of christmas reminds us
That inspiration is a gift to be given as well as received
And the love begins small
But all is grows
I wish you are a very happy christmas
