There are only a few days left to the longest and darkest night in which we solemnly celebrate the birth of light and hope for a better future. We wish for you to find under your Christmas trees fulfilled dreams, wrapped in health and happiness!<\/p>\n
However, if you are still wondering about what to give to your close ones to make them happy, we have prepared some gift ideas for you \u2013 borrowed from our favorite authors.<\/p>\n
\u201ePleasure is derived only from what is not needed<\/em>.\u201c<\/em> \u201eLet every Bulgarian house have at least one Bulgarian book \u2013 a good book\u2026 It may be just one thing, but it may also become a relic. Because in its pages, in its letters and lines, drawn like black furrows, a live seed is placed; the wholesome germ of the love of books, of language, is buried.\u201d <\/em> \u201eHow simple and frugal a thing is happiness: a glass of wine, a roast chestnut, a wretched little brazier, the sound of the sea. . .\u201c<\/em> \u201eTell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.\u201c<\/em> \u201eThere is no friend as loyal as a book.\u201c<\/em> \u201eYour travel life has the aspect of a dream.\u201c<\/em> \u201eThere is only one true form of wealth, that of human contact<\/em>.\u201c<\/em> So, we must always be prepared for the possibility that our presents might not be met warmly.\u00a0 Because us people are creatures full of oddities and as Terry Pratchett wrote:<\/p>\n \u201ein a universe full of wonders, they have managed to invent boredom.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Thankfully Christmas is a lot more than gift lists and material things. Let us enjoy this time of the year with lightness of heart and in good company!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There are only a few days left to the longest and darkest night in which we solemnly celebrate the birth of light and hope for a better future.
