I’m cold. Sitting here, I’m wearing the cold as a cloak. We’ve had one frost so far this winter and I’ve turned the heater on once – for a short burst just to break the icy air. Winter is a wonderful time of the year. I think it’s so nice because we know that it only stays for a few months – just enough time to truly make spring the bright morning star of our lives.

Some things seem to exist for that one and only purpose don’t they? To make something else look better than it actually is? But I think winter is here because we need rest. The days are shorter and it’s much too cold to go out for no reason during the night – so I like to snuggle under the bed covers early. Not everyone does I guess, but I like it. Like a quarter of the year exists to give us the opportunities to semi hibernate.

So i guess winter and summer are the things that frame the promise of vast growth and the opening door that offers us opportunities for rest.  I like… I live… I love…
