The longest night of the year

This year there was a total lunar eclipse in the early morning hours of the winter Solstice. The moon appeared red, to those that could see it. I stayed up most of the night, even though it was too cloudy here to see the moon. Sitting in the dark with just a few candles, thinking about where I have been, and where I am going. Who am I? Who do I want to be?

To me an eclipse is an omen of rapid and profound changes. On the darkest night of the year, the sky went even darker. I am in my very own darkest hours. But now I know things will only get better. I know, even if I can't see it in the dark, the LIGHT is always there.
