It is so easy to get overwhelmed at this time of the year. That's when we have to focus on the Light in the center of the darkness. (by Karen, in a comment on yesterday's post)
I flew down to Oslo yesterday morning. Usually I fall asleep as soon as I sit down in a plane seat, and sleep the 40-50 minutes it takes down to Oslo. Somehow I was unable to sleep yesterday. Halfway the captain told us that Oslo airport was covered in mist and we would be 15 minutes delayed. "Hanging over" Lillehammer, i raised my eyes from my book and looked out the window......
Morning broke. Light in the center of darkness.
The sunrise became my "creche of the day".

Heard on the airport taxi: Man 1 to man 2 - "I have finished buying the Christmas gifts" Man 2 to man 1 - "Already? How did you manage that?" Mane 1 to man 2 - "I drove my wife to IKEA, gave her two hours and my credit card!"
