"The time, care and compassion you give, often quietly and unspoken and without any expectation or recognition, make an extraordinary difference to the lives of others," the 42-year-old continued.
"As the year draws to a close, I hope this season brings you moments of peace and clarity and that you too feel surrounded by the same love and care that you offer so freely," according to E! News.
The Power of Connection and Kindness
She also emphasised the importance of simple acts of kindness, explaining that Christmas is a reminder of how lives are intertwined.
"At its heart, Christmas speaks of love taking form in the simplest, most human ways," she said. "Not in sentimental or grand gestures, but gentle ones: a moment of listening, a word of comfort, a friendly conversation, a helping hand, presence. These simple acts of care might seem small, but they contribute to the beautiful tapestry of life to which we all belong," according to E! News.
Kate added that in her view, "Christmas is a time that reminds us how deeply our lives are woven together."
Kate closed her message by acknowledging the universal need for connection, saying, "Just as the roots of trees share strength between the soil, unseen but vital, so too do we. We are drawn by an instinctive pull towards belonging and connection," according to E! News. (ANI)
