Dialing In for Winter: Lessons from a Tiny Traveler
Nature’s Cue to Pause This Time of Year
Are you ready for the change in seasons or are you counting the days till spring??
Like leaves slowly accumulating in a thin carpet over the ground, this small sooty black and penny brown creature is a perfect cue that we are in the ‘winter arc’. A time of hunkering down and reflecting on what matters most, setting intentions, and dialing in on something specific before the year’s end.
It’s as if to get a head start before we have to listen to a very stately Number One on the wall that proclaims as ferociously as a winter storm that it is a New Year. When it really should be in March, not January. But that’s a rabbit hole I will save for another day.
Turtles in the road, I’ll stop traffic for. Naturally when I spotted this banded wooly bear on his own road to winter I helped the little fella stay safe. He has his own agenda (and he doesn’t use a calendar)... But why stop for something so small?
