I want to thank you all of my followers for your support, your many likes and your nice comments. It’s wonderful reading each on of them. I feel so thankful that after all these years I am still able to do what I love to do. Taking photos, capture moments, hold on to the love I see in peoples eyes, a touch, a tear, a laughter. It has been such an amazing way so far and took me to many places and made me meet the most incredible people.

Have a wonderful, peaceful, happy Christmas holiday. I hope for a bright, healthy & picturesque 2019, many new loves stories and happy moments!

The Star Talers (Die Sterntaler) by the Grimm Brothers
 
There was once upon a time a little girl whose father and mother were dead, and she was so poor that she no longer had a room to live in, or bed to sleep in, and at last she had nothing else but the clothes she was wearing and a little bit of bread in her hand which some charitable soul had given her. She was good and pious, however. And as she was thus forsaken by all the world, she went forth into the open country, trusting in the good God.
 
Then a poor man met her, who said, “Ah, give me something to eat, I am so hungry.” She handed him the whole of her piece of bread, and said, “May God bless you,” and went onwards.
 
Then came a child who moaned and said, “My head is so cold, give me something to cover it with.” So she took off her hood and gave it to him. And when she had walked a little farther, she met another child who had no jacket and was frozen with cold. Then she gave it her own, and a little farther on one begged for a frock, and she gave away that also.
 
At length she got into a forest and it had already become dark, and there came yet another child, and asked for a shirt, and the good little girl thought to herself, “It is a dark night and no one sees you, you can very well give your shirt away,” and took it off, and gave away that also.
 
And as she so stood, and had not one single thing left, suddenly some stars from heaven fell down, and they were nothing else but hard smooth pieces of money, and although she had just given her shirt away, she had a new one which was of the very finest linen. Then she put the money into it, and was rich all the days of her life.
