a beautiful sunset over the Oregon Coast at Bandon. The sky is a gradient of warm orange and yellow hues near the horizon, transitioning to a soft blue at the top of the frame. The sun is setting just above the water line, casting a shimmering reflection on the gentle waves. Several large, dark sea stacks and rock formations are silhouetted against the bright sky and water and in the foreground, the wet sand of the beach is dark and reflects the light, while the upper left corner features a bird in flight.
winter solstice arriving
shortest day and longest night
silent trees gather forces
for returning light
lighter, longer, brighter days
saunter through the winter gloom
light triumphs over darkness
renewal awaits

For 11 years, Christmas has looked very different for Ukraine’s defenders.
Despite constant danger and daily hardships, they still manage to bring a sense of warmth and tradition to wherever they spend the holidays — even in the trenches 👇🏼🧵

Sviatyi Mykolai (Saint Nicholas) walks through wounded Ukrainian cities and villages — and still brings hope. War changes many things, but not the power of a small kindness. And sometimes, it’s these small, almost invisible kindnesses that keep the soul from breaking.

Russian troops hit a civilian car in Kherson with a drone, killing a 34-year-old woman and her 6-year-old child.
This is russia’s “human safari” — the deliberate hunting of civilians.

This is Serhii Vlasenko, a rescuer from Kyiv.
Here he stands among the ruins of his own home — destroyed by a russian drone last night.
His family survived only because they reached the shelter in time.

To be Ukrainian online is to wake up in war and be asked to prove it happened
To mourn — and be told it was theatre
To speak — and be told you said too much
To be alive — and be blamed for it
This is what it means to be Ukrainian online

Ukraine’s asked for support, not surrender instructions. If the US wants to redraw borders, maybe it should start with its own.

It is very cold in Kyiv today.
The rain and wind are tearing up the air.
Some memories from yesterday.
In Gryshko National Botanical Garden, there is a
Trinity Monastery of St. Jonas, Ukrainian Orthodox monastery, built in 1864.
I love the views there.

The place where

Ukraine stands,
betrayed but strong as never before.
Our strength is people.
And these people will fight until the end.
