He wanted to say that at Christmas, it's important to be thankful and see things from a broader perspective. Even if you don't get everything you wished for and maybe not as much as you hoped, it's crucial to remember that many people around the world are poor and hungry. The mention of "poor and starving people" serves as a reminder to appreciate what you have and be aware of the challenges faced globally. The intention is to develop a sense of empathy and kindness.
