Met Kerst Een Nieuw Kaartje?

Written with a lot of feeling, there is a very special deeper load in this short piece, I feel warmth and sadness

@140woorden Thank you, we know, we see it, do something about it now.

Neider

it is nice from time to time to check saved cards and remember moments, a very nice and well-told story

nice story very well told, it is true when old age comes it is recognized that many things must be stopped doing

@naf1971naf Handin a little bit every month.

Yes, that's how it goes? Life seems to fly by you in a snap of a finger, and many people have left for another dementia. It's nice that you're still in writing.
A merry Christmas day with your close circle of friends! Big hug. And toast the next year! For which I wish you the very best!

@Toto Animo Thankyou. Nice hot holidays also wanted

De verhalenheks

Nice and very recognizable unfortunately. since I myself in a
care home work

Sharon

It's a very adorable story. Children always have that silly desire to grow old when it's best to be a kid.

eddy

A very good story I really like how you take inspiration Christmas does not matter the size of the tree only the family moment matters

@eddy So right Eddy

Something sad but I think that many people have to live that in this time because they stop to think about the past and it is painful sometimes

leninJM

a mini christmas party when you start to decorate there is a nice feeling and aroma in the home so much unity

enigma

Very nice interpretation.

@enigma Thank you:)

Arshi

Very nicely written !! Even small memories will remain forever with us. Hope this viris will go soon and will come back in to our life. Lockdown made all things worst.

@Arshi I hope so too, but I am afraid we have to cope with this the upcoming years...

Loneliness is something that older people have to deal with very often. A partner falls away, just like friends and family members. You're left alone, if you're unlucky, with your memories.

@Leo 1 Some in our mothers' care homes have even survived all their children.

Everyone wants to grow old, but no one wants to be. That's the reality and ambiguity of life.

@Rudy Siedlecki 🌳 At a lonely height.

That lockdown isn't good for anyone, I think. I think you've written this very well. The feelings make you come to high when we read it.

@Rosita&Charlene-Blogs-Creaties Thank you, I'm pretty close to, with 2 mothers of 94 in nursing homes. You see the loneliness right there.

vanrupstotvlinder

This is something that is indeed so intensely sad. It can do so much with people, more than is often realized.

@vanrupstotvlinder Sure, and those lockdowns are also terrible for people in care homes.

How nicely written with so many memories for years and the card has already had a yellowish color. So, Nice memories.

Beautiful and concise, an entire life in a few touches that let you glimpse a before, during and after. Congratulations. Only the translation needs to be improved.

@ppoli61 I hope you have understood the valuable message, despite the worthless translation.

Great writing. Yes often this time of year brings out the best and the worst in each of us. The mention of Christmas cards, they are not sent anymore, you get a bleep on your phone and well wishing message opened. Technology has a way of removing that personal emotional connection!

@Arukah Tsur It has certainly become more impersonal.

🎄 Nicely written.

(Although I would have estimated you much younger 😜)

@Ingrid Tips en meer 👵

Dana

What a nice interpretation of the 140 word challenge. Particularly articulated. Yes, old Christmas cards bring out a lot of memories, remember with a smile on your lips, that soothes the pain of the loss.

@Dana I always help my mom (94) write it. It's too hard for her to do this alone. The address booklet contains a lot of crosses.
