"But winter darkness has a positive side to it. As we gather to
celebrate the first turn from winter to spring, we are invited to
recognize and honor the beauty in the often unwanted season of winter.
Let us invite our hearts to be glad for the courage winter proclaims.
Let us be grateful for the wisdom winter brings in teaching us about the
need for withdrawal as an essential part of renewal. Let us also
encourage our spirits as Earth prepares to come forth from this time of
withdrawal into a season filled with light." from The Circle Of Life by Joyce Rupp and Macrina Wiederkehr.
We've just passed the Winter Solstice and the days will be getting longer now in the Northern Hemisphere. The trees are bare, and still I am drawn to the colors of the forests. The deep green and rich browns catch my attention everywhere I look.
These earrings are my courage of winter, my gratitude for the wisdom and my retreat from the light.
