As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
Henry David Thoreau
If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
Anne Bradstreet
When we recall holidays past, we usually find that the simplest things-not the great occasions-give off the greatest glow of happiness.
Bob Hope
This is a time to talk kindly to ourselves. When hectic times begin to depress, some time alone is not a bad thing. Never say it is not worth the trouble to celebrate alone. When we are good friends with ourselves, we are good for others.
Joyce Sequichie
Winter is the time of comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk besides the fire. It is the time of home.
Edith Sitwell
Each new season is a cause for celebration and the winter solstice is a good time for reflection of the year past and the lessons learned and to begin a new cycle in our lives. We celebrate with evergreens, symbols of continuing life even through the cold of winter. We celebrate with fire, a symbol that even though the days are shorter the warmth of the sun will return. We celebrate with the sharing of gifts and laughter with family and friends and share in the joy of the season.
Happy Solstice Everyone, Tim
