In Which One Begins 2026 Business as Usual: Ora et Labora on the Unknown

Good morning, dear friend, reader of this present post! Happy  first day of January and 2026! Hope your last one of 2025 went fine? Do let me know! As for me, the beginning of 2026 was one where I slept through most of it, or at least did my try on napping, because the noise was great. I spent the firework moments at my grandma's apartment, but we did not see much of each other during that moment, she went downstairs for a small gathering with her neighbors, and the neighbors had an appaling taste in background music. I was tired and with not much patience for doing anything, so I retired to my own room here, and then went for the balcony to see the beautiful spectacle. In comparison to last year, it was much less "magical" so to speak, given I already knew the procedures from 2024-2025.

Zach truly compromise it was on reaching his promised land, with his serene expression; he was skating through the iced landscape. His head was calm, but seeing Adelaide in the sleigh, Zach was frustrated, frustrated that only he could see that vehicles were dangerous. However, why they were dangerous, that answer he could not explain, his mind was calm, but Zach could feel a crack on the ceiling of his mind, and when you’re on complete silence, even the small wind can be a hurricane. Zach was calm, but he was worried he’d have to face the truth soon. What truth? Everything is fine, why would he have to worry about? Worry? But why? Zach was calm, but he stopped being so serene, his face was serious and he was skating in a more sparse way, he kept on going, and on and on. Then, some hours later, he reached the other side, where he joined Adelaide, who was faithful at his side, and that was waiting for him.

“You’re here! Well that’s wonderful! We can proceed our journey!” Adelaide cheered

“I am here, let’s keep on going, our destiny awaits!”

“Zach, wait, is there something different in your face?”

“I don’t imagine it would have something different, Adelaide, why you ask?”

“It feels… more concerned… what happened?”

“Let’s keep on going! I just must be really excited to reach the land of Socks and I think I can show it on my face! I can’t help it!”

“Well, alright then, if we keep on walking we must be there in a couple of days! Our shortcut was a great one.” Adelaide knew that something deeper was going on with Zach. Moreover, whatever that was, she decided not to say a word on the subject for the time being.
