This is a celebratory thing, right? I ask because I can't help but mourn the loss of light. Gimme longer days! I don't want to drive to and from work in the darkness. Headlights give me a headache. Sigh. Happy Winter Solstice to those who do celebrate and enjoy such things.
Solstice blessings to you and your rare one. Today one of the gentlemen at Tai Ji for Seniors (groan) mentioned that he was glad it was finally winter; given the weather the past few weeks several people groaned but then he said hey the days start getting longer so we all struck the "white stork spread wings" and celebrated!
i always remember and excited about solstice .may be you feel it childish but i huge take interest in the HAPPENINGS of whole universe [though i know really too little about it ]yet it enthrall my soul . i love all seasons with their features and love the all moods that mother nature displays .i know it is too hurry but from tomorrow my ear will start to hear footstep of SPRING !!! Happy solstice to you too dear Debra!
Lovely pictures..Happy Solstice to you..My timers on my lights are way off now..They used to come on at dusk..Now it's a tad dark when they come on..Seems strange that days will be getting longer already..Oh well, we take it as it comes!!
