Yesterday, I tried to think of something to write about the passing of the shortest day and winter solstice, but couldn’t think of anything better than I wrote on the subject last year. This is a really positive step for me – the lengthening of the day, as it now begins, marks the passage from winter’s beginning to it’s ending and as such is a tipping point in my optimism.
It may not seem like it now, with snow on the ground, weather chaos and darkness, but things now will inexorably improve, little by little, and soon it will be spring again. Bring it on!
Since there’s no better evocation of the spirit of the solstice that Jethro Tull, I make no apologies for plugging this wonderful song once again too…
ooh I love your blog snow!!
