Midwinter Light

Slow down, sit, and savor the beauty and wisdom of winter--around us and within. Award-winning writer Marilyn McEntyre invites us into winter--when stars assume heightened significance and the ambient quiet of snowscapes (or fogscapes or rainscapes) stills us. Winter is quieter than other seasons, sometimes lonelier, and it opens us to pay attention. We may at first feel the ache of diminishment as days grow more silent, but even as melancholy befits winter, this season also bears its own fruit.
