grianstad shona dhíbh go léir!

happy soltice to you all! the title is gaelic -- the language still spoken in gaeltacht which is a part of ireland. written spellings of irish words are very inconsistent b/c it's a predominantly oral language.

today is the day of the winter soltice. it is the longest night of the year in our hemisphere. the night when the sun is furthest from us, way away on the other side of the world. there is one precise moment in time that is the actual solstice - the exact moment that the sun is furthest from us. because we cannot celebrate in an instant, we celebrate the solstice for a night & a day.

tomorrow... after this long night...
the sun is reborn & the light grows again.
