Our congratulations on the New Year!

Congratulations to you all on the upcoming New Year!
Year 2019 proved to be bitter, often painful – and very ambiguous. Say goodbye to it feels good. However, year 2020 does not promise milk and honey – but let's see what it will be like.
We are living in a time of great hopes and controversies, a time of important decisions that will still impact our lives for a very long time. This applies to countries (and Ukraine in particular), but it also applies to individuals. Not an abstract set – but each, each of us. And our children.
So one will have to make a choice – as we have had to until now, after all. Consciously or unconsciously, but it happens. We choose or someone chooses for us.
Therefore, it would be better to make informed, thoughtful choices. Then there is a chance not to be limited by choosing between a greater or lesser evil, for example.
Children often hear: there are things you want to do – and there are things you need to. Well, the same is true for adults. Let us be attentive not only to our wishes, but also to our true needs.
They are simple.
Freedom. Love. Reciprocity of respect and responsibility.
It's easy to be "a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal" – but what's the sense of that noise?
Let's listen attentively, let's listen quietly.
Please.
Let's hear pain and joy, fear and glory. Without hearing – we will not leave the restricting circle.
Let's rejoice.
Because it seems to work like this: love is attentive.
Merry holidays to you – wisdom and love in every home. Happy New Year!
