Bright, glowing, radiant – isn’t that exactly what we’re after after the gloomy winter days, the long time of the pandemic, the time, which is noticeably marked by catastrophes. The bread as the basis of life - it shows what is important in life. Perhaps Now is the time to go back to the basics and reflect on the essentials.
