Today we stretch the daylight as much as we can, trying to make it last. On the shortest day of the year, when daylight slips by like sand through one's fingers, people savor the light. As night falls, a community gathers on a beach and builds a bonfire of hope. Winter Solstice Wishis an ode to the winter solstice, human connectedness, and the hope of renewal. Inspired by winter solstice bonfires built on a San Diego beach near the author's home, Winter Solstice Wishcombines scientific concepts with the intangible longing for connection and togetherness that people all over the world reach for on the shortest day.
