Dear friends!

The most precious things in life are family and loved ones. And friends. Even if they’re far away, they’re always there – in my heart and thoughts.

Thank you for being there!

The two worst things in my opinion are indifference and whining. Of course, anything can happen, but it’s part of life. And you should live your life to the fullest and with pleasure. And yes, this too shall pass!)

It’s so important to love! Children, parents, the people around you. It’s truly so important! Not to love is indifference; it’s depriving yourself of half the flavor, color, joy, and pleasure of life.

I didn’t overdo it about the people around you! All people are good, even if they don’t share your political, gastronomic, or religious views… Yes, perhaps not all of them are good. But most of them are, for sure!

Never give up! If it’s dear and important to you, fight!

Protect your family, your children, your loved ones! Protect your homeland, your land!

Defend it with all your might, but defend it!

From injustice, misfortune, and grief…

There’s nothing more to say.

Help the weak! Help homeless animals! Sometimes a simple bowl of hot soup or a bag of food can save a life.

God will reward you for everything, I’m sure.

A bag of your old warm clothes can save someone who can’t afford what they need.

Don’t pass by those who need help!

When we help, we heal ourselves, and most of all, we heal our souls and the souls of our children.

Remember this!

There should be no homeless animals! Animals should not freeze on the streets, starve, suffer from disease, betrayal, and human indifference, and especially not be subjected to violence and cruelty!

May no pet be betrayed or lose their home! May luck smile upon homeless and shelter animals and they find their perfect human companion!

This year has seen too many losses, too much that none of us were prepared for. So, next year will bring many opportunities! It’s like in the kitchen: there are time-tested recipes, but there’s always room for imagination and creativity. Surprising your taste buds and brain is always beneficial!

Hugs, my dears! Wishing you happiness and love, good luck, creativity, travel, new acquaintances, exciting events, and a little magic in the New Year!

Happy New Year! From me to you!
