"2025 Christmastime Collab(?)"

I was asked this year, but this time it doesn't 'feel' like it did.

“2025 Christmas Collab(?)"

"Our cultures and morality are different; 

peace, hope, empathy hold places 

in our minds and hearts - 

we must love and trust to the future.”  

=  24 words.  

Chris, ancient117331, USA

 

24 minus 6 = 18.  I'm sad to be limited to 18 words to express a relationship to and between 6 words chosen by another to relate my sense of worldview about this reoccurring event across the world stage.  I feel let down and that is a shame.

 

Take care EM ...and Owl(?) 

- the previous years WERE collabs THIS isn't something freely participated in and hence meaning-full.

It's a lovely Collab.
