I sorta don't even notice the darker days.. I often keep strange hours anyway.. staying up a little later every night, and kinda flip over the dial.. though I try not to do this too much.

I suppose I always kind of reflect on the year past, and think of the year forward.. though.. at this point I seem to be marking it more by the anniversary of my mom's passing, which was a little more then a year and one week ago, then new years.

I guess I'm a little estranged from the earth's rhythms? Or maybe I'm just sorta polythmically orientated?

In the past I resisted them. This year I am choosing to enjoy the peacefulness available from darker days. I am choosing to do less with the outside world and tending to my inside world. Realizing how much I have missed just being with my daughter even though I am physically here with her most of the time. With the darkness I this year I am letting go of distraction, seeing how much of it is self induced and reveling in simplicity. Perhaps darker days will now become something I think I will actually look forward to...
