ugh, that old post is getting tattered and dusty
...time for a new one
let's see...
it's winter, or damn near close enough
I actually read somewhere that the concept of seasons has gone through a variety of phases in nearly every culture. Around here, there's pretty much rainy and not-rainy (or at least that's my current paradigm ...come spring things will be undoubtedly different )
but anyway, let's call it winter ...it's rainy ...and cold ...and dark
dreary? ...I rather not play that way, but the mood does grip me from time to time
for now, I'm in a phase of blissful solitude ...even if only for a matter of survival
the relationship, if that is what it was, had to come to an end ...c'est la vie
so, as a parent and not a player,
I alone will now warm my bed and hearth
until fate happens upon me
a particularly extra special new friend
which may not be until spring (or even the time of non-rain ...or maybe even a distant lifetime yet unknown!) ...eegads, indeed
so, I reacquaint myself with my hearths, both inner and outer, my breath, my tea and my mind
it's a delightful practice ...almost trancelike in the surreal passage of time
speaking of which
i have to work too soon in the morning
sweet dreams, divine dreamers

I have always loved this time of year. The cold and the dark. A time for introspection or as you say, reacquainting oneself with their inner hearth.
There is nothing dreary about that.
Enjoy your rainy solitude and self-reacquaintance. Blessings to you. ♥
