{ Happy Eve of Lights }

Some of my "family" are celebrating Hanukkah tonight while others are celebrating Solstice. On this the longest night of the year, I survey my dark, frozen snow filled landscape and contemplate my luxuries. A home that is warm, water that is hot, a soft bed, food aplenty and I know that I am blessed. As my far away family members light their candles to honor and remember the traditions founded in faith of brighter days ahead, I send them all my love and good wishes.

To a bright tomorrow filled with family, love and joy.
