We carry frozen images, mistaking them for truth. The helpless, needy child has matured and the scars (still visible), have healed. Who would you be, without your pain? A lovely flower with flimsy roots. When the first Winter comes you will be shocked and stricken, unable to survive.

Only the firmly rooted are capable of growth. Dig in, then. Don’t be afraid of darkness. How else would you know Light?

LBM 12/22/2019 Happy Winter Solstice!

Cold sun, image mine
