Beyond Selidor

I've just gotten a lovely Christmas card from my college, and am imagining the old place in the heart of winter, with all of you hanging in there and keeping the fires burning. Sending you and Matthias all our best, here from your part of the hemisphere!

And the thought of reading The Dark is Rising in these winter days sounds both chilling and uplifting! It's been decades since I read it, and I find the verses rise from my hindbrain even so. And despite the ending, I will never not think hear in my head All shall find the Light at last, silver on the tree and feel in my bones that the light will overcome the darkness, in the end <3
