Morning Pages - What is the speed of dark?

With the long nights of winter fast approaching it seems the dark comes so much faster. The warm sunsets late on a summer's evening seem like a fading distant memory as they are replaced by cold, dim winter weather. People seem to be more hurried too, rushing about instead of being calm and having time to dwindle. That is not really so surprising, who wants to hang about when its cold and raining longer than needs be. How much better to be at home, snuggled up with a loved one in front of a roaring fire. The mog folk in our house have become more inclined to snug up warm too. Even the anti-social Spot is curling up with us in bed. I think that is as close to a human lap as Spot will lower himself to somehow.
