Celebration of light
Today is the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year, but the point at which the days begin to get longer (in the Northern hemisphere). I've enjoyed reading more about this day and its history and celebrations in various places around the world (especially here and here). Taking photos has gotten me thinking more about light and the way it influences us, shapes our moods and activities. I'm taking a few moments to reflect on my gratitude for sunlight, and next year I hope to have a real celebration inspired by some of the traditions I read about today!
