I was just talking with a friend last night about darkness. The physical darkness and the metaphorical darkness. We also came to the conclusion that darkness is an opportunity to absolve things.
I appreciate the reminder from John O'Donohue that I, that we, live in a wondrous universe. As he writes: "Just as darkness brings rest and release, so the dawn brings awakening and renewal. In our mediocrity and distraction, we forget that we are privileged to live in a wondrous universe." I arose early this morning and was greeted by a blazing red sunrise in the midst of the chill of winter. I have been waking up in the night due to the political turmoil in our nation and world. I am deeply distraught and disappointed in my fellow Americans. Nature reminds me of cycles and to hold onto hope for renewal in every way.

I love that! I believe that there is a beauty in darkness, too. One we often don't linger in. pm
