Sharing Good thoughts we may have thunked and we wish to share. We have found that our Happiness isn't in a bottle, pill, money, or in another person. It's simply a state of mind. It's not always easy to get to. Contentment is hard in our western society. - These are our thoughts on it.

Whoot! It's Winter Solstice!
I really don't know what that means in today's world. But it apparently held a lot of meaning for humanity long before the invention of the electric light bulb.
I'm still curious about what the ancient peoples thought about their universe, and that perhaps some of the best belief systems such as the Druids might have had more things right, than wrong.
So as I'm web surfing about Solstice, and take note from a Time Magazine article that the Druids were really interested in the Solstice, and found it quite important. - That gets me to searching about Druids. Who were these people? It's a funny sounding name to boot. Druid. sounds like Fluid, but stickier?
So according to http://www.druidry.org/druid-way/druid-beliefs
"One of the most striking characteristics of Druidism is the degree to which it is free of dogma and any fixed set of beliefs or practices."
There's much more to read about it, but it seems to be a pretty loose set of beliefs. And they're not violently trying to convert people to become one of them... Hmm. I think that the world could use more Druids. I wouldn't mind them as a neighbor. Not at all.
