The solstice is near. These are the longest days of the year, when light dominates and darkness retreats to its minimum. Notice this abundance. It will not last forever.

What does all this light make possible? Earlier mornings. Later evenings. Time that would otherwise be lost to darkness. This is a gift worth noticing, worth using, worth appreciating.

The year pivots around the solstice. After this, the days begin their slow return toward darkness. But for now, we are at the peak of light. Stand in it. Use it. Let it illuminate not just your surroundings but your awareness of time passing.

How will you honor these longest days?
