Why do we com\u00adplain and moan so much? Why do we spend so much time tal\u00adking nega\u00adtively about things? Why do we lack cou\u00adra\u00adge and con\u00adfi\u00addence, good\u00adwill and opti\u00admism? Not becau\u00adse the times are so dark, but becau\u00adse we have clo\u00adsed our eyes to all the beau\u00adty and good\u00adness that is the\u00adre any\u00adway \u2013 but that we can\u00adnot see sin\u00adce we are con\u00adstant\u00adly cir\u00adcling around our\u00adsel\u00adves and our own con\u00adcerns. Antoine de Saint-Exup\u00e9\u00adry was right when say\u00ading: It is only with the heart that one can see well. Could it be that our hearts have gone blind from all the self-centredness? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Christ\u00admas mes\u00adsa\u00adge for 2024 is to embrace beau\u00adty once again \u2013 to open our hearts and see the world through eyes of love. Love reve\u00adals beau\u00adty and beau\u00adty streng\u00adthens love \u2013 and with it our hearts, our cou\u00adra\u00adge and our con\u00adfi\u00addence. Sin\u00adce beau\u00adty empowers us, it has the power to save the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is why we wish you love and beau\u00adty. For, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2018A thing of beau\u00adty is a joy fore\u00adver.\u2019 (John Keats) <\/p>\n\n\n\n
With all our hearts <\/p>\n\n\n\n
