One of the biggest professional holidays in the world. My professional holiday for almost 11 years.

I haven't worked with theatres for about 4 years now. Because with the start of the SMO, theatres in the country became something I didn't want to work with. Artists and directors have scattered. Much of what I loved has perished.

Now I see that this world functions without me, just as it did thousands of years before me and will after. Quite recently, it stopped causing me suffering - I accepted it as a given. That's how life turned out.

One thing remains unchanged - the good people I found over these years are still with me.

If you are celebrating today, I sincerely and wholeheartedly congratulate you.

Lately, I've started to feel that I might return. Perhaps we can celebrate it together someday.

For now - work, serve, create, and love ❤️
