In Which a Defeat feels like Victory

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this post! Hope you are okay? Do let me know! And maybe the weather is also fairing not as summery, instead leaning more on towards Autumn, assuming you come from the north! Here, the weather of September has been mild, which is a blessing! As a whole, the month so far was one of a slowly fading winter, in towards what one can pray it may be a fresh spring. As for me, the weekend was relatively calm. I did play some games, and I could work on my first 2026 season christmas postcard! As a personal tradition I have, I do it early, as I adore christmas. I was worried if this year I could have done it as early, fortunately the answer is yes! As usual, this is dedicated to my dear pen pals, excellent online friends, that I have cultivated across the years. It has a sparkly feel to it, more than in past years. It just ended up this way, and I like it. No reason for it to look particularly optimistic, just happened in the end. God knows I have my lament...

Song of the Week! In Which we have another Christmas Song!

Hello everyone! Happy Friday to you! How are you today? How are things going? As usual, I wish you the best, and hope things are fine! How is your 2019 going so far? Mine is going slowly, it really doesn't feel like 2019 yet, which is fine, everything at its time! Things are going in slow motion, I didn't do much, though I did some drawings and made some experimentations with it! I want to try and make a full body character this year, maybe progress in art a little, but not really going to push too much for it, since it will do me no good. Overall, calm but boring days, that can be good too, though, so yay to 2019!
Well, concerning music, I was not too sure on what to share, since we're heading to the end of the official christmas season... I was wanting to have some Christmas still though, since I love this so special Holiday so much, so well, on the Christmas of 2017 one of my favorite artists George Ezra recorded a version of White Christmas! A very beautiful one! Well, December 24 and 25 are gone for another 12 months, but this song is one for the whole year honestly, the feel of it, I think it's suiting for us to have it today!



George is really an artist I appreciate a lot, his voice is unique and deep in ways hard to believe, and his version of this song is lovely and really kind to the ears! This is a wish for the spirit of the end of the year and all the beautiful things that come with it don't fade away as the White snow becomes just snow in January, that sometimes feels like the Sunday of the Vacation season, and the air becomes hardly one to notice, and routine becomes drier and we feel like on the edge of another huge 12 month climbing, that can become boring and even depressing at times. It can become, but this is a wish for not to be like this. It is hard but this is a wish for the smile and the lust for life to keep on going, that Christmas don't go away 100%, that the decoration around us still inspire nice memories, even if they're not festive. This is a wish for anything to keep on being cheerful, and that we don't stop saying to our friends that we love them a lot. Christmas of 2018 is fading and it will be history soon, but Christmas goes. And gifts out of season coming from nowhere are honestly the best!
If you don't have Spotify, don't distress, as I have the Youtube link to this amazing version of this iconic song right here! I definitely need to write more on Geoff this 2019. He is truly remarkable.


Thank you so much for reading this, dear reader, you are really the very best, just my thoughts as usual, if anyone at all even takes a small notice, that will 100% blow my mind. See you lovely people on the next post!
