Embracing the New Year's magic across the globe: From the serene Buddhist stupa in Kathmandu to the dazzling fireworks behind Big Ben in London, and from the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge to the joyous Buddhist celebration of Losar. The world unites under a sky filled with breathtaking displays of light and color, bidding farewell to one year and welcoming another. As we gather with loved ones amidst laughter and cheer, let us remember that this moment is not just about counting down seconds but also reflecting on our journey so far. Like Dante Gabriel Rossetti's captivating artwork or Yabu Chosui's charming Rabbit portrait, each stroke representing a chapter of our lives. And as Crystal Palace once presented its grand bill of fare for an extravagant evening, may we too savor every experience that awaits us in this new chapter. So let these fireworks ignite hope, love, and dreams as they illuminate cities around the world – reminding us that no matter where we are or what challenges lie ahead, together we can make this year extraordinary.
