Christmas is a day to celebrate the rebirth of the sun.
December 14, 2021
Actually, it's not December 25th.
This is the time of year when the days are the shortest at the winter solstice. From this point onwards, the days get longer little by little towards the summer solstice.
Religiously, the sun symbolizes the death and resurrection of life. In other words, it symbolizes Jesus himself.

Nero, a talented artist who is now all alone in the world, is ostracized by his village after a windmill burns down.
His only hope is to enter an art competition, but he loses to a rich boy who uses expensive paints.
At the age of 10, he was at rock bottom. In a daze, he felt drawn towards Antwerp Cathedral in the middle of a snowstorm .
Jesus gave the hopeless boy the greatest gift of all at the end.
I...I finally saw it!
Two paintings by Rubens depicting the Crucifixion will be on display free of charge for that night only .
Stop for a moment, how beautiful you are!
Salvation of the soul. Light shines from the sky onto Nello's emaciated face. Nello lies barefoot in front of the painting, with Patrasche at his side.
Led by the angels, the two ascend to heaven.
This scene is seriously awesome. But Nero, why did he have to die?!
The woodcutter wanted to take you in, and one of the judges, hoping for a Rubens reappearance, came to pick you up. Mr. Kozetsu and others were grateful to you for finding the gold coins...
Truly a life-changing turnaround. I even got to appear on NHK!

Michael Faraday, the god of electricity.
The master at the place where he was working as an apprentice encouraged the boy, whose eyes lit up with curiosity , to go to a science lecture .
Later, after becoming director of the Royal Institution, Faraday gave a Christmas science lecture for children once a year.
One of these lecture notes is " The Science of Candles," which has led many famous Nobel Prize winners into the field of science .
What is the phenomenon of wax (C) being sucked up from the wick by surface tension, bonding C with O to form CO², and combustion and light emission?
The lecture ignited the flame of science in the children's eyes, making them say, "Go flame!"
The sheer precision of the design of physical phenomena led him to believe in God.
In other words, the "science of candles" was a gift to humanity from Jesus through Faraday.
It's a little early, but Merry Christmas!
