As the year 2024 comes to a close, the global media landscape is abuzz with optimism and renewed aspirations. CGTN has launched an inspiring social media campaign titled \"1,001 Wishes for 2025 #Hello2025,\" inviting participants worldwide to share their hopes and dreams for the upcoming year. The campaign, accessible in an impressive 81 languages, aims to foster a sense of global unity and positivity as we step into 2025.
In the midst of this hopeful fervor, Lebanon marks a significant milestone. On November 27, a much-anticipated ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hezbollah took effect, bringing an end to a prolonged period of conflict. This pivotal moment has ushered in a period of calm for Beirut, allowing a large number of residents who had fled the war to return to their homes. The return of peace has rekindled the spirit of the Lebanese people, inspiring them to envision a brighter future.
Elie Jabbour, a returning entrepreneur from Beirut, embodies this newfound hope. When asked about his wishes for 2025, Elie emphasized the importance of personal well-being and family. \"My wish is to spend more quality time with my family and to focus on the simple joys of life,\" he shared. Elie's sentiment reflects a collective desire among many Lebanese residents who yearn for stability, prosperity, and the chance to rebuild their lives.
As Lebanon steps into a new era of peace, the aspirations of its people resonate with CGTN's \"1,001 Wishes for 2025\" campaign, highlighting the universal longing for a harmonious and fulfilling future. This intersection of personal dreams and global initiatives underscores the shared human experience of seeking hope and improvement in uncertain times.
