stormdogI wonder what the experience of having an emotional connection to the solstice is like. I've never felt much of an emotional connection to any such cultural/religious ritual. I'm glad the days will get longer.
I guess my strongest solstice memory is when I went with my ex to a solstice celebration friends of ours were having because it was a social thing to do. I met a person who started sort of dating me for a while and who then broke up with me because my ex was making the relationship too stressful. She (my ex) got really upset with anyone it seemed like I might be interested in dating, or who might be interested in me. Perhaps not the greatest memory to associate with such a thing.
I miss that person sometimes. I suspect we would not have worked out in the long run, but it would have been nice to figure that out for myself.
