we seek the heat
we seek the light
reminding ourselves we are alive
During these cold days and nights our senses come awake in different ways to the days of summer – we are drawn to comfort, to warmth and light.
But remember to welcome the tingle of icy finger-tips, the mist of warm breath when you step outside, the thin winter light that subdues the colours around us.
Our senses give us feedback from the physical world – keep us awake and attentive.
Hibernation is not an option.
Thank you Claire for sharing your beautiful, warm thoughts of winter. Here in the northern hemisphere we’re experiencing a heat wave … hmm, talk about the tension of the opposites! For as much as I love heat and sunshine, in my garden I search for deep shade, comfort and coolness. Great last line! Solstice blessings, Deborah.
