the sun stands still
Happy Winter Solstice all. The days are getting (a very little bit) longer from now on out. The light of the world is coming! I learned today that "solstice," means, "the sun stands still." For more interesting facts about the solstice, check out National Geographic . from FOUR QUARTETS: East Coker O dark dark dark. They all go into the dark. The vacant interstellar spaces...... I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting. Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought: So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing. ~ T.S. Eliot
