It is white outside..The snow has covered the garden as a white carpet, is hiding all the things I find so valuable, my flowers and trees and my small garden items I have places around..
The winter makes it cold outside aswell, and the sky is dark, only a few stars has lighten up the sky this night..
It is Yule-tide..and many is celebrating, a few festivals has taken place in Bree-lands and joyful events is about to happen. My daughter Welin has gone home to Rose to celebrate this night.
My self I am alone this evening, and I do not miss any company. Earlier this month me and my little group of bards has travelled around, and we even went to this old fortress Berghold in this dwarven lands..
It was a magical night, many travellers, trading-caravans and warbands visited the place we found close to Thorin's Hall.
So many came, and many friends aswell. The evening was beautiful and nice introduction to Yule.. I had a few new songs, that my good friend Eovina presented through her voice and emotions. Abergar also wrote a beautiful Yule-tale that I am trying to write down in my journal, as soon as I will get his notes
The evening went well, and so many nice people came and praised us. I cannot be more grateful, they all came and shaped the event as a very sweet memory for me to carry. It was a busy night, so much music, cheering, happy voices and laughter.....
This night is a very silent night, all I hear is the sound of burning branches in my fireplace..
It is so nice to look at, dancing flames shaping different figures. It recall past memories..
Dancing people at our numerous events in the past and a dancing Achazia when she was young and beautiful, loving the life and people around her.. I had so much plans and dreams for the future.. only one was fulfilled.. The music.. and I am happy about that. I had many many dreams, some never came true. But is better to have one dream fulfilled than none..
I am very thankful for this, and not regret all the dreams and people I denied in my life..Although... if I could, maybe some choices would be done differently, but I cannot turn back time, so I will not ponder to much on it...
I do feel happy and grateful for what I have. My music it's all that matters and is all I need..
