Contemplation

In these long, dark days of January
the world spins slower
more pointedly
facing us in
directions

    A picture window in the winter definitely causes pause for me.

    @booguloo: hard not to soak up the scant offers of light within winter's long days.

    @joanny: She loves to play outside cold or warm, but I think in that moment she was admiring birds at breakfast :)

    Thanks Brian. You always give me smiles by your presence. That helps January move along.

    Flawless One Shot, Katherine!

    You nailed it PERFECTLY!

    And this is WHY I so enjoy this time of the year. Everything slows down; allowing...

    contemplation.

    Have a great day, my friend!

    @Mairmusic: Bwahahaha! I love it! You have a great eye for detail Ms Mair! Cheers to that. :)

    @Ron: I know you love yourself some winter Ron, but I could use a smidge more sunshine for happier contemplations. Who am I to complain though? Happy Zen thoughts to you my friend.

    I guess January is a month of contemplation.. all the cold weather forces you to be alone and think

    @kathew: There certainly is longing there.

    @SY: We all tend to hibernate a little more in the colder weather I think. Definitely a time to mull life.

    @MDW: She is my eldest, but I have to admit this isn't 55. Haven't come up with any witty 55 yet, but there is still time! Happy weekend to you too Leslie.
