All I want for Christmas is you is what Mariah says. What do you want for Christmas or did you already get what you wanted for Christmas since we are one day away from New Year’s Eve???Yeah, every Hallmark movie talks about the prince and princess, but personally I was always focusing on the palace to be honest rather the romantic part hahaha. I remember a day when I was a child, where I was telling my Dad that I wanted to go and live in America and my mom said this, that shocked me as a child with a heavy and sarcastic tone “How? You will not have money” then I looked at my dad with my big deep brown colour watered eyes, it felt the same when I realized there was no Santa. He approached me and whispered in my ear “Do not listen to her. Dreaming is living. Always keep dreaming Nadoula”?
We are living in a very challenging society, dark moments have passed the last few years with the pandemic, cancer is getting bigger and bigger, new diseases, wars, financial crisis. It is like the whole world is changing and unfortunately not in a good way.??But, If you go back in time that’s the cycle of life for centuries now and those people, they rebuild themselves again and again because they had a dream, a vision and hope.?
A society, a company, you as a person you must have your personal vision, a hope. Without hope you cannot dream of your future and I am referring to the short-term future because the pandemic taught us that long term plans can change in a sec. What if you have lost hope, nothing matters anymore? I do not believe that this can be true. If you look around you, you will realize how thankful we should be even if we are going through tough times.?
What do I want for Christmas? For New Year’s? I want my peace. What brings you peace? What makes you more anxious and stressed? Isn’t it time to let go of those habits, people anything that makes you feel sad??
Declutter your life just like that.?Cut off anything and anyone who is not good for your health physically and mentally but?DO IT!?Not tomorrow, now:) What would you remember when you will breathe your last breath? People, memories even the arguments and you will be laughing. What I miss terribly when I am away from my parents is our discussion about history and politics. This Christmas I didn’t really go out but instead I am spending my time with my parents to “store” more and more memories because I know one day, I won’t be able to create more.?One good way to declutter easier your life is by having a grading system. You can check the previous articles that I have posted.
We lost Pele one of the greatest football players in the world! He loved what he was doing, he was amazingly talented, but he was also passionate about his life about his purpose which was to be the best as he could. What inspires you when you think of Pele? His millions or what car he had? NOOOOO you remember his passion, his amazing skills and his beautiful smile when he was looking at you. May you Rest in Peace Legend!?

What do I want for Christmas? Love because when you truly love yourself then everything gets better. Why? Because you have no need to be jealous or evil because you feel enough and satisfied with yourself.Everything starts within you. We can learn from our suffering and as Viktor Frankl said and as Einstein said we suffer more in imagination than from the actual suffering.?
What do I want for Christmas? I want your happiness because if we all are living in a happy society, that will have a positive impact on each one of us.?
I want you to love and be loved, I want you to dream even through the darkest hours because damn man, I get it, it is tough, but we are tougher.?
There is always a rainbow after the storm.
Happy New year’s you amazing creature from Nadia Themis' family.
Go get your happiness. You deserve it.?
