Winter                             Waxing Moon of Long Nights

It has been a cold day, not bitter cold, but temperatures in the teens with below zero lows.  This is a good time to be inside, working on projects like learning Latin, writing a novel, studying Daoism.  All of which, it so happens, I’m doing.  It’s like gardening in the summer, cultivating those things that are appropriate to the season.

Boy, did I have a nap this afternoon.  I hit the bed and went straight to sleep, going hard enough in to have a solid dream or two.  Woke up and I was groggy.  That’s normal for me, by the way.
