Summer Solstice

I always feel a bit of sadness on the Summer Solstice. It's the longest day of the year and the next day marks the slow march back to darkness and winter. My experience is that I thrive in sunshine and feel positive, happy and want to be active. The dark is more introspective and leads me towards, soup, hot chocolate and knitting. This winter my intention is to live in a sunny place for one to four of the winter months. There, I said it. Ideas?
