During this season of holidays, when debate erupts over the most non-exclusionary way to offer season's greetings, there comes one event that many people don't even notice. It comes every year and it affects everyone, whether they celebrate it or not.
At 7:04 a.m. ET (or 12:04 p.m. GMT) on Sunday Dec. 21, 2008, the northern hemisphere begins its tilt back toward the sun, marking the winter solstice in this part of the world and slowly leading to longer days.
I so dread the coming of winter, the cold, the long dark evenings. But now I know, as of today, that our days will gradually have more daylight!!!! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel :-)
