Turning Point

I’ve been awfully tired lately. I can’t seem to get enough sleep. It’s probably due to lack of daylight. It’s dark when I go to work in the morning, and it’s dark nine hours later when I come home at night. I do get to see daylight on my lunch hour, but that’s it.

But today is Turn-Around Day: The Winter Solstice.

After today, the day when we have the least amount of hours of daylight, things will get better. The minutes of daylight will increase. Dusk will creep in later and later until I actually get more hours of sunlight for my very needy soul.

I don’t blame the ancients for worshipping on this date.
