Sunday the 3rd of March, 2024 - March Words - Stefan Malfer - Nikolaus Stanek - If by Rudyard Kipling - Andrew J. Roberts
March Words
March is a two-faced month. Unreliable. March should be the beginning of spring and the end of winter. But, this rarely works. Winter, with its very strong grip, just doesn't want to let go. March has to strugle hard to move forward to spring. Spring is no match for winter. Winter always gets its own way. The result is confusion. Cold mornings that call for a coat and afternoons when coats have to be carried. We have no way of knowing how each day will continue. March is a month we must take as it comes.

A Saying from Tirol
I overheard this story in a Tirolean Gasthaus. It was just after church.

January Words
January's unique. It happens only once. January is unlike any other January before and different from all others to come. This is because of our feelings and times. January is high expectations we are certain will happen. We have, after all, a new year to welcome. January is bright. Everything is fine. Our resolutions are still freshly baked. We still have resolve. This year things are going to happen. Things are going to work. And, January's the month when everyone's nice. There's a universal feeling of good. People are not only spreading good cheer, they are receiving it, too. So, go into the year with grace and good cheer and make them your own. Your year will then be just as you want it! I wish you a happy new year. Nigel A. JAMES

December Words
December ends yet another tired and worn out year. And, this is why December would like to believe it's still part of November. December is still dark. But, gradually even this darkness is leaving and going elsewhere. The longest night has already left and the light has started to turn. But, December has to be forced to be happy. We help it each year. Advent and Christmas. And we even bring our own colourful lights and much more as well. But, nevertheless, no one really likes December. No one can wait for its end. There are, after all, happier times round the corner. And, much better than now. NAJ 2023
See you in January!

November is a sandwich, A sandwich of dark and black with a thin slither of light as a filling. November touches eternity. November reaches out to the extremes of our understanding. November is bigger than the whole and as powerful as the whole. Darkness to darkness. But, remember, when it gets dark the morning always comes.

The darkness of the ongoing year and the darkness of spirits. Neither can be without each other. Shorter days mean longer nights for the great sleep of nature, and, longer nights for the spirits to freely rome. Halloween is just one example. October is the month of the spirits. October quickly goes. The spirits go home. Nature carries on with its sleep.

July July is a 2 month month! On the one hand, July is a month that has arrived at long last. It's been a long time in coming. A very long wait. The holidays are here at long last. No more school until autumn. Time stretching out as far as the eye can see.
On the other hand, July is a month that has come far too quickly. Where has time gone? Doesn't time pass! The days are now getting shorter.
July is the top of year. The next 12 months are both downhill and uphill. Time at full speed. A rollercoaster ride. Back to where we are now. July is a 2 month month. Alpha omega alpha. Hold onto your hats.
