Well, there’s no denying it anymore…
It’s not exactly my favorite time of year – when the patio
furniture and the bikes get put away, the sky goes gray and the night comes early.
“A lot of people like snow.
I find it to be an unnecessary
freezing of water.”
– Carl Reiner
I’ve been searching for something positive… Soup is good. :)
As I dig out the winter coats, boots and scarves, I’ll try
to keep focused on the positive. I’ll find some of my favorite soup recipes,
get the Crock-Pot going, fill up the house with the smell of cinnamon apples,
and replace my dresser drawer of shorts with long sleeve shirts that I forgot I
had.
There’s no use in complaining. I’ll keep finding things to
appreciate and smile when I do. Maybe I’ll make a snowman.
I’ll wear my Gryffindor sweatshirt. I’ll look around outside
and remember the crystal shaped beauty in a single flake of snow, then zoom out
and realize how much beauty surrounds us. I’ll place battery operated candles
in all the windows and smile when I come home at night to see their glow.
It’s just winter. It’s not that bad. It’s not really bad at
all. :)
Namaste,
T
