In the hustle and bustle of city life, it is never so quiet that you can hear a pin drop.  Except maybe on a snowy Christmas Eve, when everyone is tucked in with families enjoying their evening meal, whether you're celebrating the holiday or perhaps just enjoying your own supper in solitude.  As we all sit back with full bellies, stuffed with what ever food we ate, it's fun to take a step outside, on the front stoop, on the back porch, etc...  just to watch as these big fluffy flakes of ice fall.  Just like children, we always seem to enjoy the one that lands on our nose, crossing our eyes to see if we can see it melt, or to look up and open your mouth wide, scrinching your eyes, to find out to see if you can really catch the snow on your tongue.

The quietness of the wintery bliss is very peaceful, even cheerful, despite the gray skies that drops the snow that we love to see falling, but hate cleaning up after...  All of a sudden, breaking the silence, comes this big flash of lightening, as if Askr and Embla are getting a wake up call from beyond...  to teach us in these modern times of when life was simple and innocent...  when humans needed the Gods and Goddesses to guide us.  It seems as if our modernization has corrupted so many, to the point that children grow up in need of shattering the silence of the shame certain types of abuse brings them...  A return to a time where children are cherished to be raised into adults, to pass their wisdom to the new generations of children.

At the height of winter, the harsh cold has us wising for spring.


The laquered lady


We yearn for the flowers of life to bring us freshness and harvest of new, invigorating, and a new chance to rejuvenate.  With this rejuvenation, comes the new harvest of vegetation for human sustenance. Here's to fresh starts, new beginnings, and a chance to get things done right.
