Last night we drove through the country-side nearby. Sitting in the back of the car, my daughter-in-law told us we were getting 30 per cent more moonlight because of the full moon being close to the winter solstice. All I can say is that the moon was a breathtaking sight as it shone on smooth, snow-covered fields. I could almost feel the calm silence all around.
At the moment I'm enjoying the winter in spite of the cold. There's so much beauty at this time of the year -- tender and delicate colours in the sky, lavenders and pinks and really golden sunsets. The conifers look so graceful with their branches decked with white. So even though Christmas seems to be approaching even faster than usual, I can be tranquil and access the quiet mood of anticipation that Advent brings.
