November
My gloomy November and one step to a lighter December

Hello, Dear! How have you been?
As every year, November hit me with its darkness and cheerlessness, a difficult time to look forward to anything light. However, I (we) got past it, and now, looking back, I can clearly say - there were some very warm private moments with my family this autumn.


There were multiple days spent at my grandparents (my kids' great grandparents), which did warm everyone's heart (and let me nap a little). Games, talks, grandma's food - everything added to the sweetness of the day and reminded us of the beautiful circle of life. Each person in the family chain holds its own story, its strengths and colours. As for the kids, there were no little rules at grandparents' - everything was new, touchable and explorable.


In addition to family gatherings, my friends and I were preparing for our annual Christmas concert, and this contributed largely to the magical wait of the festivities. Our practices brought that sense of calmness and holiness. These friendly gatherings bring a true feeling of a bigger meaning behind the plastic and chaos - an inner light - which reminds us of the timeliness and relevance of our spiritual, sacred part of life, which must be nourished.
In the topic of music and spirituality, this November, Rosalia - a well-known pop artist, released her fourth album 'Lux' and surprised the music world by contemplating and enhancing the metaphysical part of our existence. She touched religious themes in multiple songs on the album, which was a rather niche theme to be found in a pop record. Rosalia even recorded an opera-voice piece, after perfecting opera singing for a year.
Thus I am leaving this blog with Rosalia's 'Divinize':
Through my body you can see the light
Bruise me up I'll eat all of my pride
I know that I was made to divinize
Outside me
Inside me
I hope the December greets you with a little bit more
light,
inner warmth
and love.
✨
