to … shhhh …
So.
Yep.
There are quite a few snowflakes outside and stunning is my viewpoint
as, once again, I am left in awe by the powerhouse known as Mother Nature.
& yep,
there are those who look at things a tad differently than I,
those who have to tread out and drive through and be within this wintry mix and I promise, I get it, I do.
It’s tiresome and tedious and dangerous and icky and it must be maneuvered so life, as it was before, can continue.
but, barring any tragedies and all those not so good happenings that accompany frozen vapor …
dontcha just LOVE a good snowstorm ??
! I know I do !
I love the ! ! there’s absolutely NOTHING we can do but wait it out ! ! feeling of it all.
SLOW DOWN
STOP
PAY ATTENTION
to Nature and her emotions because she is sooooooo incredibly amazing.
From her quiet tranquility to her ultimate fury to the teeny, tiny, every little, itty-bit, be it Winter
Spring
Summer
or Autumn.
She does her thing, she goes her way and she leaves us to deal
& that, right there !! is my favorite lesson of all.
We. Deal.
and we gather and we help and we offer and we acknowledge and we communicate and we coordinate and we unite.
We hope, we love and we realize that together ?? TOGETHER, we too can be equally, incredibly amazing.
As I look outside this a.m. a quiet rush fills my insides, knowing the chore ahead will take quite a chunk of minutes, understanding the in and out and stop and go and urgh and uh-s involved should be enough to purchase a snowblower or contact a service or pay the kid down the street … or …
but bundle up, get ‘er done and conquer this bugger, I will.
And THAT’S why I adore Winter.
I will deal. I will do. I will pause the hurry, hurry, hurry for a wonderfully brief moment
to realize
to notice
to … shhhh.
Yep.
My shovel and I will take our S L O W, steady as a turtle time and I’ll be all proud and plump and wooooweeee exhausted this evening, but I seriously cannot think of a better way to spend this today
& yay, Mama Nature,
THANK YOU.
