Happy Holidays friends!

Hello friends and fellows.

Here I am, amidst the warmth of my house, writing these final wishes of the year. I've always found it to be an extremely important section of my life, because it is a way to sum up what we have experienced throughout the year.

And what I am personally feeling, is an outpouring wave of joy and gratitude.

I cannot lie. Mentally speaking it has been a very difficult year, I have been challenged more than I though, but not more than I could handle. If I managed to get through these dark days it is also thanks to your constant support and patience, your being there, when I needed the most, to shine a light in the crawling darkness within my heart.

Some of you knew, many of you didn't, and yet without knowing, you've saved me.

It has been a year where I have been absent for quite a long periods of time, and I do apologize for it. There are plans, however, to make sure this incoming 2024 will be full of surprises.

Christmas, or Yule, for me, is not just a season of giving, but mostly a season of thanking. No help, no support, no friendhsip is ever taken for granted, and this is the perfect time of the year to be reminded of those around us. What a best way to wrap up the old and rusty year, if not by putting a smile on our faces.

It is a chance to remind ourself that, despite everything life puts in front of us, we're never alone. YOU are not alone, and I will fight with all my strength to make sure none of you will never slightly feel this way. If you're feeling alone or helpless, reach out to any of your friends, also reach out to me. As they say, no human is an island.

For me, one of those people was Janire. She's the shining star that never let me drift on the ocean, like a beacon guiding a shattered little boat. I cannot be thankful enough for all you've done to me mi amor. You truly are a blessing, and I feel so lucky to know our paths have crossed.

May this season bring the best of you, and may it be a solid foundation to build the fondest memories. I truly wish you will be filled with marvelous surprises, and that your days will be surrounded by laughs and tears of joy.

With a heart full of stars,

and a mind clearing up its mist.

Happy Holidays friends.

Kadaj.
