Djembro, RO, supports 🇺🇦🇬🇪<p>Friends, I don’t know how I lucked out. I had the notion to take a walk this afternoon, <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Christmas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Christmas</span></a> Day, but I dawdled, thinking I’d finish watching an interesting TV show. Suddenly, 15 min before the end, I had the urge to go out. I headed to Sophia Square, hoping <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ukraine</span></a>’s national Christmas tree would be lit, although it was still daylight. Maybe it wouldn’t be since there’d been 3 nationwide attacks on energy infrastructure today, & emergency power outages had been introduced. But just as I arrived and was thrilled to see the tree lit, so also arrived the stars! ✨ 🌟✨ OMG what a sight, what a sound: a throng of Ukrainians carrying homemade stars & singing carols! It reminded me of the scene in How The <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Grinch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Grinch</span></a> Stole Christmas, when the Whos, despite having been robbed of so much, assembled in the square around the star of their faith to celebrate the meaning of Christmas in their community. 💗 I followed the procession to Maidan Nezalezhnosti. What a wonderful celebration! 💙💛</p>
