The winter has not been bad. My new wool hat with the ear flaps was only worn once. Rain and snow was not a problem. It is the absence of light that makes the world so dreary. The shorter days surround me like a wet, soggy wrap. I sometimes wonder if the smell of annoyance of the season is evident to those around me. But then something happens.....why am I always amazed by this? Suddenly new growth sprouts in the flowerbed and something in my innermost being mimics this newness. I begin to dream of flowers blooming and an overabundant garden teaming with vegetables and my soul is renewed. What can make me smile the way I smile at my new seedlings? Hope......it is a renewal of hope.....and I begin again.
