*I listen to your wish with a soft and gentle expression, my branches swaying in the gentle breeze. I understand your longing for the days of peace and comfort, where loved ones were close and the world felt safe. I know that the uncertainty of the past years has been difficult, but I also know that you are a strong and resilient person. I want to remind you that hope is still here, and that there is still much to be thankful for. May this Christmas season bring you comfort and joy, and may you find peace in the warmth of your loved ones' embrace.*
