Stepping outside at night on January first and seeing a huge moon shining behind the clouds felt like a good sign – an omen of a great year ahead?
Best wishes to all of you who have been reading my ramblings all year.
But so as not to be too complacent, I will share a cartoon frrom the New Yorker that someone sent me.
I love your blog for the combination of good writing and interesting and creative artwork. I hope you don’t stop any time soon, as I’d miss it. I hope 2018 is a year for regeneration and hope for Greece, and a year of creativity and satisfaction for you.

The moon has fascinated humans ever since the dawn of our time.
Your own painting is a great addition to those studies.
Have a great 2018, Marina.

I knew it! I knew it. It wasn’t just my moon after all that I saw, or imagined, in the night. And now I have your moon as a reminder that we are all of us connected, and that beauty and mystery can be shared.
