I have been feeling low at times with the darker days and everything going on in the world. I have found myself yearning for more daylight again. Your photos of the winter sunlight are beautiful. I love how you have been adding light when it’s dark too. I do find fairy lights and candles help this time of year. It was a lovely piece to read. That brought some light on a rather gloomy morning. Wishing you a peaceful Christmas too.✨

How kind you are to leave such a lovely comment thank you so much. I really do hope you experience even more light in its various forms as the rest of December continues. I'm cleaning the kitchen today, with fairy lights on!

Reading this brought such a sense of comfort, one I didn’t necessarily know I needed. Thanks, Lou.

I read this by candlelight, something I do more often this time of year.

The photos you shared are beautiful and calming. ✨

That's so kind Alison thank you so much. I haven't tried reading by candlelight, what a lovely idea. I'd definitely need my most powerful reading glasses but am really drawn to this and will try and find a quiet corner and make it a reality. Thank you.

Have also just seen autocorrect has been at work again, apologies for missing the additional l from your name!

No worries! I didn’t even notice 🙃

Yes, if reading my kindle, I do so next to candlelight. If hard cover or paperback, I use a small reading light with the candle. The ambiance makes it all the more cozy.
