These images were taken during my stroll through the Chicago Botanic Garden's annual holiday lights and music event. Known as Lightscape, this exhibit features amazingly beautiful installations of coordinated colors, lighting and sounds of the season. A few weeks ago I also posted images of the popular "Winter Cathedral" portion -- an amazing wall of lights.
As the winter solstice draws near, we rely on our inner light as well as outdoor décor and seasonal items in our homes to illuminate our spaces and celebrate what is....ahhhhhhh..... something beautiful.
"It is better to light one small candle
than to curse the darkness."
--Eleanor Roosevelt
Our priest spoke of our being the light in the darkness. There you are.
