Merry Christmas and a Wonderful 2025 full of justice, freedom of speech and pruning of the governments’ trees!

Christmas is the time to give what we have most precious. There was a time when gold, incense, and myrrh were rare, precious and essential in both their practical and spiritual nature. They were used to recognize the essence of Christ and the effort, choices and sacrifices we need to do each day to travel our life toward the Good.
In the modern times, where the world seems dominated by a diffuse evil stupidity, the most rare, precious and essential gifts we need to give are justice, freedom and a fight to limit the growing cancer of totalitarian governments.
The Wise Men showed us the way to make the world a much better place, where each of us is an equal son of the Lord, just by recognizing the daily choice between Good and Evil.
Every day we have to choose if we want to please Herod to have a semblance of power or if we want to honor Christ and have the long term goal of a better world for every human being, ourselves included.
Sometime is not easy to understand the direction we have to take but when on one side there is Herod, a king ready to kill or harm kids to not loose his power, censoring free speech, attempting to kill his opponents and growing exponentially the tentacles of his bureaucratic control, it is easy to see the path we have to take.
We chose the other side, the one representing justice, freedom and limited powers. May the Lord give to our modern Magi the force to pursue the Good in every choice they will have to make!
May the New Year bring us the freedom to produce, the peace needed to trade our products and a bright future of discoveries and great choices!
