🎄🎅🎇The Magic of Christmas among traditions and decorations.

What a joy to greet you on this day and in these dates in which the joy of Christmas is contagious in every corner of our city. It is common and is part of our traditions to observe beautiful, striking and creative decorations in the streets, squares, shopping malls, stores and houses. Strolling through the city day and night and stopping to enjoy these works of art are part of the traditions and lifestyle of the people of Cumaná.

Every year in my city Cumaná and in most homes in Venezuela they begin to prepare the decorations, lights, tree and the traditional "Nativity of the Baby Jesus". Likewise to do painting, repairs and maintenance work that at other times of the year are not done. In my house this was a tradition and many times we would arrive at the most important dates painting hahaha. This time of the year brings me happy memories of celebrating the Christmas holidays.

Today, I can see that although there are difficult situations many families and communities strive to maintain their traditions and as we say around here making magic. People give their best to enjoy these dates giving happiness to their loved ones. That is why I wanted to make this post where I reflect in my photos how beautiful life can be despite the difficulties.

Thinking that these dates we should give love, affection, a message of hope and gratitude to life for what we have. To be generous with ourselves and with others. There are so many things we think about during these dates. Among them, we are nostalgic for our loved ones who have left this world. The reflection of what we live and what we wish for our life. These are undoubtedly some aspects that are necessary, healthy and important for us to think about and analyze. In any case, this month is full of much meaning for each one of us.

I want to say goodbye wishing you all the best for your lives. Let's enjoy every moment that life gives us. Giving thanks for what we have and keep striving to be better people. Learning from life from the good and not so good things. Knowing that we are not perfect. To love ourselves and others. Let's live in harmony. A pleasure and pleasure to share with all of you. Tell me.
