Today is the winter solstice- the longest night of the year.Since ancient times people celebrated that after this night the world turns to light again. Yule is the time of awakening-a time to welcome all that is new and possible.So take time in the hustle and bustle to light a candle to remember that even in the coldest darkest time- light and warmth will return
Brightest blessings

Pattyann, that is a lovely tradition.
Thank you for sharing it!
For me today is going to be the longest day of the year. I just started working retail and they have me working until 11:30pm! The customers tonight will get very good deals as I will probably fall asleep by 10!

i celebrated the solstice by the soft glow of my lightbox...doesn't sound zen, but it really was...
i depress easily during the winter months and that lightbox has given me the opportunity to enjoy this season in whole new ways -- like awake [Wink]

a warm and bright yule wish for all!

Sandrea- isn't it wonderful that when we're ready for the sun it comes and just as wonderful that the quiet of darkness returns too in it's time

Isn't our Creator wonderful? When I consider the work of His hands... everything in it's time... the beauty of a sunset, the hope that comes with sunrise...I can only praise HIM!
