Weihnachtsmarkt. Hamburg.

Whatever you say about Christmas, whether you love the sound of cheesy songs and bells and enjoy shopping, hate it because of pressure of tradition, family, culture and consumerism or treat it as some time in a year fixed for cooking, meeting and giving presents. Here people make Weihnachts markets and have truly fun out of it. Just because they can hang around outside, meet friends, eat something unhealthy and drink some spiced wine. In the meantime spend some money on useless gifts or sweets. I'm not saying it's something great. I just see relaxed people spending time elsewhere than in shopping-malls or in front of TV. I've seen it before in Summer and in Autumn, guess Germans also have their ways to deal with Winter.

By the way, despite amount of wasted electricity and supporting capitalism - that was awesome. I envy German children a bit.

It's never easy

For the all I truly love. 

"Well, my heart is broken and my spirit too
but this won't be the day that I surrender to the likes of you.
I may be hurt and bleeding,
but I won't lay down and die.
As long as this hearts beating.
I will get up and try again.
And I know I can't be wrong,
'cause we are thousands strong yeah!

Each one of us a feather on it's gol-encrusted tail.
And if we stay together
there is no way that we can fail.
Almost like a phoenix rising.
From the fire, hear it's cry sing out!

With different hearts and different minds
we're breaking barriers.
With different hearts and different minds
we're gonna break down the walls
and whatever stands in our way is gonna fall!

This is the second wave,
a new wind in our sail,
and if we stay together
there is no way that we can fail.
How much longer can you ignore us?
Here we come now,
are you ready for us?

TEAR IT DOWN!
TEAR IT DOWN!

There's nothing that can stop us now,
if we put our hearts to it.

TEAR IT DOWN!
TEAR IT DOWN!

There's nothing that can stop us now,
 if we put or minds to it."
