When it is very dark, I think of the blackjack card game because the goal of the game is to stay below 21, the 21st of December is the darkest day. The word black is used to describe darkness.
I looked at the new year ahead and thought I should play more and watch TV more because time goes by so fast, it seemed not long ago that I watched the new year celebrations for 2023. Play more computer games, eat more vegetables and watch more TV, do what you need to do and leave time aside for leisure. A friend of mine passed away this month, he was the same age as me, he was killed in a traffic incident. I don't know how long I have left, I could live on for longer or I could pass away in one second.
