Hearken to a Winter’s Tale, from Olden Times, of Castles Cold and Firesides Warm, wherein may be reveal’d Secret Wisdom to those Fortunate enough to Discern it.
Today’s story is “Not to This Retreat of Mine” by Rob MacWolf, who wishes every other lone wanderer on the winter roads a fireside to rest at. He is author of You Look Lost, Pup and Of Late Belonging, and you can find more of his stories from both Bewere Books and Bad Dog Books.

For a long time, I couldn’t make it 24 hours.
My 11 years of #recovery haven’t been a straight line. I’ve relapsed after 3 years, after 1 year… I’ve had stretches where I felt completely hopeless—fighting both #addiction and clinical #depression.
➡️If you’re struggling this #holiday season, please don’t wait.
You are not alone.

Inviting folks who are alone or maybe have mobility challenges this Christmas to join us on our family walk through the city's holiday lights display. A collection of photos.
WOODLAND PEACE (2008)
Acrylic - 12" X 9"
Whenever it’s been a tough year, I’ve found a way to portray that quietly in my annual holiday card. 1/2

PEACE (1993)
Oil on Canvas - 20" x 14"
This has become one of the most popular images I created for the family holiday card.
Again I find myself sharing hope for peace during the holiday season, an appeal which seems to be growing in urgency with every passing year.
WINTER ENCHANTMENT (1997)
Acrylic - 20” x 25”
At the height of the winter, the nights may stretch longer but the days are always full of wonder. That magic of possibilities is what I tried to capture in this painting. 1/3
