for good food and warmth,
for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire:
it is the time for home.”

💥”Christmas my child, is love in action…When you love someone, you give to them, as God gives to us.
The greatest gift He ever gave was the Person of His Son, sent to us in human form so
that we might know what God the Father is really like!
Every time we love, every time we give, it’s Christmas.” – Dale Evans

🎄20 Days Of Christmas
💥Following the (Romanian) chaos of the last two weeks, when I was somewhat on the brink of a heart attack, I can now finally concentrate on the most beautiful days of winter.
💥I am going to start publishing the most beautiful Christmas paintings today.
🎄Christmas is the time of enlightenment, inner warmth, and profound joy, and I particularly liked what T.S. Eliot said in “The Cultivation of Christmas Trees”.
⚡️“Christmas in Romania means drummers dressed up in bearskins to spook evil spirits and joyous children in colorful apparel chanting at doorways: ‘Do you welcome the Christmas Eve’s carolers?’” – Iulia Halatz
🎄Let’s start growing our Inventory of Light with the most beautiful Christmas paintings.
