That's just how I feel, stde. The word 'solstice' literally means 'the standing of the Sun' and to peoples of ancient times it was a real turning point in the year. A time of hope and joy for the arrival of the New Year. They say that is why Christmas occurs at this time. (Forgive me if you already know this). Perhaps some of us can feel that way even in the midst of our suffering. There is always hope around the corner; hope for a full recovery but I know everyone will not feel like it at the moment. Blessing to all and a happy New Year. Love. jonathan.
Amen to that Stde, am counting down to the return of the light. Thanks for reminding me - even when I can't see it little by little it is getting brighter.x
