00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.720 align:middle line:90%


00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:01.890 align:middle line:90%
So then we have a winter--

00:00:01.890 --> 00:00:04.740 align:middle line:84%
December and January, and it's
already starting to get hot.

00:00:04.740 --> 00:00:08.130 align:middle line:90%
So this is this point here.

00:00:08.130 --> 00:00:11.700 align:middle line:90%
And this one is--

00:00:11.700 --> 00:00:14.310 align:middle line:84%
I stole the title
from other people

00:00:14.310 --> 00:00:17.580 align:middle line:84%
in our series, one
of the early books

00:00:17.580 --> 00:00:21.000 align:middle line:84%
that Larry and I
worked on called

00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:22.260 align:middle line:90%
The South Corner of Time.

00:00:22.260 --> 00:00:24.630 align:middle line:84%
And this one I just
called "The South Corner."

00:00:24.630 --> 00:00:29.070 align:middle line:84%
And again, it has to do
with the movement of light.

00:00:29.070 --> 00:00:31.920 align:middle line:90%
"The South Corner."

00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:34.110 align:middle line:90%
"My body is in line.

00:00:34.110 --> 00:00:36.510 align:middle line:84%
It is at its darkest
point, but only

00:00:36.510 --> 00:00:40.380 align:middle line:84%
for a short time, not
enough time for madness

00:00:40.380 --> 00:00:43.290 align:middle line:84%
or temporary
depression to set in.

00:00:43.290 --> 00:00:47.676 align:middle line:84%
The darkest point is only a
brief window of opportunity--

00:00:47.676 --> 00:00:50.190 align:middle line:84%
opportunity for
sadness, loneliness,

00:00:50.190 --> 00:00:52.440 align:middle line:84%
falling out of love,
and other states

00:00:52.440 --> 00:00:55.290 align:middle line:84%
associated with
the lack of light.

00:00:55.290 --> 00:00:59.670 align:middle line:84%
But before the opportunity can
be taken, the shadows turn.

00:00:59.670 --> 00:01:01.800 align:middle line:84%
The light becomes
stronger, pulling me

00:01:01.800 --> 00:01:05.470 align:middle line:84%
toward it, the warmth,
the promise it holds.

00:01:05.470 --> 00:01:08.010 align:middle line:90%
And so I begin another cycle.

00:01:08.010 --> 00:01:11.610 align:middle line:84%
Along with animals and plants,
the winds and the oceans,

00:01:11.610 --> 00:01:15.450 align:middle line:84%
and all that feel this same
pool, I come into balance.

00:01:15.450 --> 00:01:17.680 align:middle line:90%
I begin again.

00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:20.730 align:middle line:84%
It is only December
22, and it's already

00:01:20.730 --> 00:01:22.155 align:middle line:90%
starting to feel like summer."

00:01:22.155 --> 00:01:25.530 align:middle line:90%


00:01:25.530 --> 00:01:31.370 align:middle line:84%
So that's, again, just
acknowledging our seasons here.
