New Year's night - our first minutes of 2019

New Year is something weird. It's such a random artificial thing but an entire world decides to start over at one point together. It's just one second that comes by like all the other ones and yet it's special.  We need to kiss, we need to shoot fireworks, we wish.

I don't have a prediction of what 2019 will bring but I fear it will be some tough emotional decisions. For the first time I am really not looking forward to the new year...and yet when looking at the fireworks going up in the air, the collective hope is contagious. The smiles on the dancing little ones that "were allowed to stay awake for an adult party" were so sweet. So I hope...I hope it will all work out.
