Hi Ari, Your story made me smile. I miss my Dad who passed at the ripe age of 90, in 2013. On the 22nd of December he would ask “have you noticed how the days are getting longer?”
It got to be a ritual of his and I would anticipate his asking this every year. One year I beat him to it and tricked him into my questioning him. Not good. He wasn’t angry but I think disappointed that I beat him to it. I never did that again, out of respect, and love. I just played along. He died of dementia and stopped asking….I miss him so. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Holidays, love and peace to you and yours.

He sounds wise. Love to you and yours!
Thank you Ari. I needed to read this today. The perspective shifted something in me and lifted my ennui. Happy Holidays, my friend 🙏🏽 💖
that's wonderful to hear. today is already a minute longer than yesterday!
Thanks Ari! Nice tune and pic. I miss your dad but think of him often. Happy "spring" to you as well.
yes, happy spring (or, anyway, hopeful winter)
Have a wonderful holiday season, Ari, and I wish us all a lighter and more promising new year. Sincerely,
Richard
