I finish the year in a similar way to what I started: with a butterfly image.
It's fake, I know! But the intention is to wish everyone a Happy New Year, which will begin with the inner transformation of each one of us.
May we lapse all our good attributes to become what we are destined for and reach the best of ourselves.
If everyone in the world will strive for this, the word humanity will one day have reached its greatest significance ...

This image with colorful effects reminds me some scenes from the movie "Close encounter of third kind". In the center I can imagine the landing strip for spaceships... :)))
