Winter certainly has more dark hours than summer. And with daylight saving time, well here anyhow, it’s now dark around 5:00pm. Time the winter solstice arrives sunset is 4:30pm, we have over 8 hours less daily sunlight than in summer. Of course, the stars are out much earlier. So that’s kind of nice (when not too cold).
Rock is right. Folks do care about you. I know how depression masks that “known” truth. Well, more ignores than masks I suppose.
Keep active. Bundle up and go for a frosty walk. Look up, look at the stars.
When you have enough snow, go tobogganing with S12. We’ve got a good hill nearby that the kids loved. A thermos of hot chocolate, an afternoon of sledding down and climbing back up. Worn out and exhilarated. Good wholesome fun.

Feelings are fleeting. Be better, not bitter. Love the person, forgive the sin.
