It was already first candle last night, but there are seven more to go - so it's not too late to wish one and all a happy Chanukkah. May we have light in our darkness, both literal and metaphorical. This is a time of year when the darkness seems to be winning, these holidays tell us that it is really not. Last year around this point I somehow had time to extensively journal about the way these winter holidays connect us back through the centuries with our earliest ancestors. If you didn't know me then, or read those entries, I reoffer them: they begin here, and continue on through the month of December, 2003. There certainly isn't time this December to make it a tradition!

Happy Chanukkah to you and yours as well. Hope that you begin to feel some peace along with the season before too long. Thanksgiving came too late this year. Didn't leave any time before the December rush. Peace. Paulette
Happy, happy Hanukkah! I hope your holiday season is off to a wonderful start!!
I am thinking of you!! judi
This is the season, for Christians and Jews, to remember the miracle of God's light shining into our darkened world -- the hope and promise of the kingdom of God, and all that entails: justice, peace and mercy for all.
Wishing you the best during this holiday season,
Neil
