Happy Solstice

Happy Solstice

It's the shortest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. In Minnesota, where I live, the sun won't rise until 7:49 A.M. and will set at 4:33. Its cloudy today, on top of it being an already short day.

I miss the sun.

I miss the feeling of the sun on my bare skin, the nauseating brilliance of the glare when you've been sailing all day and the cool you feel when the sun goes behind a cloud.

I should celebrate the Solstice, perhaps I already do.
