45 cards are now drawn and waiting to be painted, that will start Tuesday or Wednesday. We visited our favorite tree farm today and got our tree, a beautiful blue ice cedar which we will plant on our farm after New Years. It smells heavenly. It will be a few days before it is decorated, but that's ok.
Another cold rainy day, but you know like these days. They give me a great sense of connecting to mother nature as she rests these next few weeks. I like that feeling of slowing down, going inward during the cold dark days and then the explosion of energy as the season changes moving toward spring.
I think that as humans it is important to feel a connection to nature, to be mindful of the darkening of the days as a time to rest and contemplate our lives. Then as days grow longer and brighter to know and embrace the possibilities of all things new and reborn, of growth.
I hope this week brings a greater sense of peace and hope to all. I hope that we remember we are spiritual beings experiencing a human form and that we all belong to the human race.
May we all be kind to each other.

I love your expression of the dark days as a way of slowing down and taking rest just as does nature. I only wish I could hibernate and come out like a groundhog when Spring arrives. Ha !
