I think all of us in the states are beginning to feel a winter shadow. In late winter many of us grow weary of the darker days. The late to rise morning sun and the early to set evening sun. The bare landscape lacking it’s usual colorful self and even the stillness we took solace in earlier in the season begins to fell empty. 

This when I remind myself if you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. Winter’s early twilight begins to appear less gloomy and almost mystic. The long quiet evenings become the perfect chance to write. And the bare landscape transforms into an intricate silhouette.
