January 5: Post snow day

Snow provokes responses that reach right back to childhood. Andy Goldsworthy

The day after a snow storm when the snowflakes have settled and the sun shines through the bright blue sky, it illuminates each little ice crystal, casting some magic on the scene - taking you back to your childhood, remembering all the fun and carefree things you did. It does help that the view from window was over the playground! There is a quiet, as the power of nature settles, and she shows us there is always something beautiful that follows difficult times, we must just be patient and trust that things will turn out well.
