Winter
Winter is here. The shortest days, the darkest hours, the foremost test of our fortitude. Bleak for sure but beautiful if you look and also if you listen. There is charm to be found within every storm and struggle for life; a frosted landscape, a refraction of light, a blanket, close friends and Christmas jumpers. On the surface, it’s a bleak and chilly mix but there are glistening twinkles of beauty throughout.
