Reflecting and (re)beginning

In the winter nature dies away and takes a rest. But her apparent death provides a fertile foundation for new life. Winter is therefore a time of reflection and repose, a time to think about what was and what is to come. In this morning conversation – not coincidentally around the time of the longest night of the year – Season’s Thinker Joanna Wojtkowiak gives free rein to her thoughts about what gives us light in dark days, as individuals and as a society. Her sounding board for this is Alicja Gescinska. Alicja's website states "Just because things could be worse doesn't mean they shouldn't be better." The end of the year is therefore the perfect time to reflect on what we want to see differently the following year.
