January 8th, 2012



What a glorious day! The sun is shining on the barren branches of winter, but wait, why is the temperature 41 degrees in January?

I know, I've said it before as well - global warming? Or is it more that things may be turning around a bit?

I remember days like this many years ago ... back when winters were really cold and snow falls were deep and long. There came the time we called "January Thaw" -  a week of warm temperatures before the cold would set in again.

With all the sorrow and discontent that has manifested this last decade, could it be that we have finally woken up to hear the song of the universe as it whispers in our inner ear again? Maybe it is a sign of better days in moderation or just a stop along the way of our journey back into the lighi

As I look around me I can still see those days of yore when life, as my grandmother would say, was kinder and gentler. A time when quality was more important than price, when time was more important than deadlines and an era of anxious anticipation for easy days in the sunshine of a lovers kiss.

On this special day in January 2012 I am feeling very blessed indeed because, even if no one else feels it, there is most definitely a very positive charge in the winter wind and it is blowing us toward a most excellent spring and summer of renewal I think.

So as the new born solstice sun of the Yule warms us and stirs our embers may it also be a time of resolutions for each of us to forge ahead and rebuild that which has fallen into disrepair ... I for one am ready!
