Hello dear eSteemians!

We are having a holiday again today in my country. People in Ukraine celebrate New Year not only on the 31-st of December but also according to the Julian calendar. The celebration mostly starts in the evening on the 13-th - families gather at the table and wait for 12 AM. Children get gifts and people wish Happy New Year to each other. In some people`s opinion the Julian calendar is more truthful and that is why they celebrate New Year on the 14-th of January even brighter than on the 31-st of December. As you see my friends - January is full of holidays in Ukraine and New Year is not the last holiday. On the 19-th of January we celebrate also Epiphany but I will tell about this holiday later. And today I want to wish everybody Happy New Year! Wish you beautiful moments, treasured memories, and all the blessings a heart can know, dear friends!

Sort:  

Happy New Year beautiful, wishing you a bright and prosperous one
