Before we can start a new year we need to celebrate Christmas 2020. This year our tree decoration was paid a special attention to. Pii doesn't care much about the tree... but she cares quite much about the cat who loves to hide and play under the Christmas tree. That's why He tied up the tree by a metallic wire to the hook that He fastened into the ceiling. So far the tree is still up... despite few "oops-moments".
For many of us, the year 2020 has been quite different compared to 2019. Perhaps you thought after 2019 that life can't get worse. But it did.
I have noticed many people post on social media -year after year- how the past year was challenging than ever. On social media people post pics and stories about a good life all year around but at the end of the year it is fashionable to write how hard it all has been.
My intention is not to criticize or look down. No, not at all. My intention is to pay attention on mental health. If you need to look back, don't count how hard this and that was. Tell yourself how strong you were and got over this and that. It is positive thinking.
If not never before, the year 2020 has shown us who our true friends are. It doesn't matter are they close or far, how old or young they are. 2020 proved us whom we can count on. Grab on that, hold on and make a new start. Step by step walk through 2021 even it would feel frightening because we don't know yet what's coming.
This Christmas 2020 Pii was happy to work for Santa Claus. She was allowed to pull the sled to bring gifts to grandparents. And she was extremely happy when realized grandma had something in return; a bag full of dog food! Giving and sharing is always worth of the trouble.
