Winter Solstice {Hope Renewed}

Yay, it's the winter solstice! The shortest day.

And I'm excited why? 

Because after today the days grow longer,

 the sun gets stronger, 

the brightness rises higher. 

Hope is renewed. 

Because, after all...

Winter can bend you. Leaving you weary, making you long for warmth and sunshine.

Winter can feel confining, dreary, looonnnggg.

But it can also feel reviving, cozy, serene. 


"Winter is the time for comfort, 
for good food and warmth, 
for the touch of a friendly hand and 
for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home." 
~Edith Sitwell


Wishing you all a winter full of cozy evenings, increasingly sunny afternoons and hope through the bitter cold!
For you know, the bitterness can't last forever. In winter, spring is always around the corner.
