whimsy

Something about the winter,
the cold, the short days,
the blue and purple colors of the evenings.....
I don't know, but something always makes me nostalgic.
It makes me sappy about the year that has past.
About my family and friends.
Oh how I get weepy when I think of them in my winter wonderland.
Every year, without fail, I am drawn to read His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman.
The books give me hope.
Hope for life
and love and all things good.
I'm looking forward to losing myself in the pages again this year.
