Winter Solstice Intentions

Yesterday, December 21, was the Winter Solstice.
The day each year that has the shortest daylight and therefore, the longest night.
It's a time that beckons us to reflect.
What events happened this past year?
How have things changed?
How have they not changed?
I try and reflect on the past year without judgement, purely taking inventory.
Re-experiencing how I felt.
I felt a sense of accomplishment and pride at launching my blog.
I felt a sense of love and belonging connecting with people who care for me.
I felt a sense of disappointment breaking my sobriety.
And
After the longest night of the year comes the morning.
The day the sun ascends a little higher for a littler longer.
A symbol of hope.
How will I continue to be of service to myself and others in this new year?
The answer I place deep in my heart.
