Historically, these weeks between Thanksgiving and just a week shy of Christmas I feel pulled down through the layers of my contented life--past the love and commitment my husaband and I share; past the adoration and celebration I feel for the son who chose me as his way into this lifetime; moving still deeper and downward through the gratitude and connectedness that my friends provide me; spiraling through and through any resemblance of a spiritual wisdom until I meet again, face to face, with the vision of mySelf that calls from the depths...lying in wait, content in her dormancy, year after year, season after season of my Soul. Today I'm taking time to honor this shadow side of myself. Without her, I could not be Whole.Feeling Blue is the artistic property of www.artist-christinewilson.co.uk

That's beautiful, Kim. This sounds a lot like my Februarys. Between Turkey Day and Christmas there is too much to do and prepare for and I am far too highly strung to relax into blueness, but once the holidays are over and the winter continues to stretch on endlessly...
I hope your season is a bright cobalt blue. And brief.
Beautifully said. I know that if there is light, there is also shadow but sometimes it's hard to appreciate.
That is so beautiful that I have read several times over the last few days. I will probably read more in the future as well. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you all for your witness and validation of the tender season of the soul.
I love this pose as it reminds me of the yoga "child's pose" which is all about surrender, acceptance, and restoration.
May you too be held and safe through the silence and depths of this season.
Love & Peace, Kim
