White Christmas – A Vianoce boli biele
This year, surprisingly, Christmas was white. 😊 My grandma was telling that already weeks in advance and I did not believe her. I don’t even remeber that much snowfall during the holiday season. In the past, even if it fell overnight, it melted quickly in the morning. This year it was different thanks to freezing temperatures. Tento rok boli Vianoce biele. Moja stara mama to predpovedala s tyzdnovym predstihom, no neverila som jej. Teraz sa jej ospravedlnujem. 😊 Ani si nepamatam, kedy boli naposledky sviatky biele. V minulosti, aj ked napadol v noci sneh, rano sa roztopil. No tentokrat to bolo inak. Snezilo viac dni a topit sa zacal az…
Festive season / Vianocne sviatky
It’s that time of the year again. Today, I woke up to snow covered country. Christmas is white! 😊 I wish you and your loved ones merry and joyful holidays. 🎄 Dnes rano som sa zobudila do krasneho bieleho dna. Konecne biele Vianoce! To tu uz dlho nebolo. 😊 Krasne a pohodove sviatky plne smiechu, stastia, zdravia, lasky a spokojnosti vam prajem. 🎄

Zamyslenie nad vzájomnou pomocou a rebríčkami, kde nechcete byť
Neverim, ze ludom je to jedno. Neverim, ze osobne pohodlie je viac ako zivot cloveka. Neverim, ze cloveku v nudzi nikto nepoda pomocnu ruku. Dufam, ze ta spolupatricnost a ochota pomoct tu este stale je. Ze ju za ten cas frustracia nevytlacila.

Photo: Piestany in golden light
I can't help myself. I keep staring at this photo taken by my dad on the river shore in Piestany (Slovakia) on 1st March 2017. The setting sun made the hills look golden and the dark clouds and its reflection in the river give the picture a magical feeling.
