When I was asked to do this commission years ago, I didn't grasp the concept of working as a team to get to a higher ground. In a peloton, one leads for awhile and then when tired another biker rides up to take the on wind for the good of the group. I understand more and more the idea of sharing life with others, of asking for help when needed as opposed to doing it all alone. So many people help me on a daily basis and I am so grateful. This season when it's dark and cold the light we share with one another is, to me, what the season is all about.
