This is the shortest day(light) of the year. From here until late June, the amount of daylight will increase incrementally until by the time we're ready to start planning summer vacations, we'll be sick of all the sun (present company excluded). Or not.
Winter is why I don't enjoy Autumn, (<= understatement alert!) because I know what's coming next and the fact that it's been getting darker for months, and even more so and faster after we fell back at the end of Daylight Saving Time, just makes it harder to see both in the morning when I awaken and when I look out the window in the late afternoon and it's already pitch black.
For purposes of this discussion, we can treat the cold and the snow as read.

So, as we sing the seasons through, today is the day for a dark and deep note. We begin to moderate the key and alter the tempo as the changes that make up our universe enfold and unfold around us.
