This time of year we light candles to celebrate the retreating darkness, to celebrate miracles and survival, to tell the story of a baby born to poor parents who grew up to be the light of the world, and/or to celebrate a shared culture and history.
Whatever you’re lighting your candles for this month, I wish you peace, joy, and a new year that brings safety, love, and warmth to everyone.
until then we’ll have to muddle through somehow…
