Christmas - the most beautiful season of the year. Yes, indeed! As long as I can ...

... remember Christmas has always brought a very special and almost peculiar feeling to me. Not only joy, but melancholy dominates my mood. I think back and reflect over the year. I think of family members and friends who sadly passed away. I think of existence and finitude - that we all need to spend and enjoy time with our family members and dear friends, since those moments won‘t last forever.
This year, I especially think of those who were affected by the current pandemic, who have lost their lifes, jobs and existence.

Christmas is the celebration of love ❤️ and contemplation, so I wish you all a very merry Christmas🎄,
But say a prayer🙏🏻, Pray for the other ones
At Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing
Is the bitter sting of tears
