Today is the last day of Hanukkah this year. As the Jewish Festival of Lights comes to it's 8th and final day to light the candle, we can let this day be a reminder that winter celebrations hold Light, as well as tradition and history. Whatever changes you may need to make this month in your traditions, let light be an aspect. In the short piece below, Larry Morris reminds us that the holidays hold something else as well: the potential for surprise. On one hand it seems that this year has brought too many shocks to consider the joy of surprise, but surprise is the positive pole that adds sparkle, wonder and a magical quality to life that takes us beyond the box of thought and expectation, reminding us the Light (and delight) of life is not to be contained.
