Worrying about what you can't change is a trap.

Feeling guilty about what went wrong is pointless.

So whatever the issue is just accept what you can't change and have the good humour to forgive yourself.

All you can do is make today the best day you can, despite what happened yesterday, and any other day.

Ti's the season to enjoy the warmth and invitation to rest, of a real open fire.

Yes it may not be necessary in modern homes with good insulation and central heating.
In fact urban homes now are being built without fireplaces. It seems they reduce the energy rating of a home.

Personally I love them.
They remind me of my childhood yes, but then so does Bosco and I don't relive that memory.

An open fire takes work to make.
It's messy to clean.
The fuel is expensive.
Fuel has to be stored somewhere.

The truth is that for families now they just feel they don't have time and energy for it.
And that is true.

It is a great failure that modern society is too stressed to take time to enjoy simple pleasures.

We only light the fire occasionally.
When we do it is a special time for us to just sit and be together, even if it is just to watch something or play a game.
You see the fire is an invitation to pause and keep the home bonds warm.

I hope you can find time to enjoy a simple pleasure with others. Winter is a good time to come together and not be distracted by the outside world in its darkness.

As we settle into 2026 we may have already reviewed our 2025.

Last year may not have gone to plan.
Regardless of all the good work you did, the results just aren't there to show it.

Frustration and loss of hope may be tormenting you.
What can you do in 2026 to turn it around?

Simply keep going.
Stop doing what is not working.
Don't hold on to sacred cows of how you do things.
Adapt, change to the circumstances and simply keep at it.

Just keep doing everything you can.
