The darker days of Winter urge us to return to our roots like the perennials in our gardens, to find time amid the holiday commotion for our creative practice and quiet pleasures of reading and contemplation. I've been enjoying reading my seed catalogs and garden books to prepare myself for the Spring gardening season.
When change or difficult times threaten to divert us from our plans, it takes discipline to keep our dreams on course. This discipline is necessary to cultivate the gardens within and around us.
As this final month of the calendar year leads us to a new annual cycle, the season of winter leads inevitably to another spring. The darkness of winter affirms the cycle of the renewal of life in all its many wonders and rewards.
