The worlds contracted thus

The year of 2008 has left me with a bittersweet aftertaste.
Time to move on. I will not look back at 2008 fondly but I will look back with understanding.

I am planning to have a few days off, spend time with my gorgeous family and Zen.I am thinking a retreat at home for 7 days. Time to look after myself and start 2009 as I mean to continue, with love and health and hope.

No point looking back and wondering what would have been, the world's contracted thus, we must do more with what we have, instead of adding to the pile of fools gold we think we own. I will stand in the sun, tend to my garden, love my children and swim in the sea. The sun will shine on my centre and your centre and we will be.

In the immortal world of John Donne:

Princes do but play us; compar'd to this,
All honour's mimic, all wealth alchemy.
Thou, sun, art half as happy 's we,
In that the world's contracted thus;
Thine age asks ease, and since thy duties be
To warm the world, that's done in warming us.
Shine here to us, and thou art everywhere;
This bed thy centre is, these walls, thy sphere.

Hey, take your kidlets to see City of Embers as a holiday treat. I think you and they will enjoy it. Beautiful and with a lovely spiritual/metaphorical underlay. I think the main girl would be a Gemini and the boy a Scorp, let me know your thoughts when you all see it! I saw it with mum and Dec yesterday. Very magical.
