A quick note. It’s my birthday today and I decided to spend the day in happy gratitude for all the comments, emails, and suggestions that I’ve been receiving over the past few days.
My Seasonal Affective Disorder
Seasonal affective disorder is a -very- real physical and psychological issue.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), also known as winter depression or winter blues, is a mood disorder in which people who have normal mental health throughout most of the year experience depressive symptoms in the winter or, less frequently, in the summer, spring or autumn, repeatedly, year after year. In the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV), SAD is not a unique mood disorder, but is “a specifier of major depression”.
5 birthdays ago, I would change the wallpaper of my computer into as many photographs of the sun as I could collect. I spent a lot of time in front of the screen, so it really helped me, in a very deep, spiritual way to remind me that the sun was shining out in the world and still in warm in my heart.
This year seems particularly special to me because through many little miracles, I’ve realized that it’s a calling for me to be able to share with you all these Sacred Scenes on our blog.
So I’ve put together some of my favorite high-res photographs that you can use to wallpaper your computer desktops, and be reminded that sometimes the best miracles are the ones right in front of you.

PS: I had a lightbox too, keeping it around was handy, and I’m sure it helped. But it was the powerful visual imagery of the sun that would really bring my mind into a good state. Try it out. Let me know how it goes for you!

I wish you a very happy belated birthday greetings and thank for those uplifting photo’s. Looking out my window this morning its a winter wonderland but I much prefer the sunshine. I normally go to a warm country for the Christmas period but alas the recession put paid to that. However your lovely pictures remind me that just because I don’t see the sun of feel its heat its still pouring its warmth down on many parts of our wonderful world, and in a few months time I will once again feel its warmth on my skin. Again thank you, Robert.

I usually go to the Canary Islands John, I love it there its above 20 deg’s and I suffer from chronic arthritis so it’s very beneficial for me.
