From Svitlana:
What is my reason for this? I simply want a celebration! I am just tired of the negativity, which is trying to trickle into my home from the screen, so I rarely turn on the TV. It is POSITIVE news I want!
I believe that even in the face of severe and harsh competition between people, companies and nations, you and I can retain our human faces and create a world, where all people are needed and useful.
