The days have been getting terribly short, haven't they? There's a reason so many of our celebrations during these dark days center around light. With less and less daylight brightening our lives, people across the world and throughout time bring light into the home by lighting candles, decorating with bright colors and even sharing gifts in an attempt at brightening someone's day.
I love this time of year. Every morning I get up before my family to take my supplements and feed the cats. Now, I can turn on the lights on our tree we lovingly cut down from our friends at Wintergreen Farm up in Tennessee and brought into our living room. There's something about that sparkling tree first thing in the morning that brings a smile to my face.
And if it weren't for the darkness, the light would be less bright.
Take a moment these dark days to do something that brings light back to your life or to those around you. Make someone smile. Decorate that empty wall that's been lacking something. Drape a strand of inexpensive lights over your curtain rod. Wake up early and say hello to the sun!
Before you know it, we'll be sweating in our beds waiting for those cool fall evenings!
Be well everyone.
