“We all live under the same sky, but we don’t all have the same horizon” ~ Konrad Adenauer
In the more than 30 years I have spent living in Vermont and now Colorado, I have never heard such dramatic words attached to little white snowflakes! All of the TV stations are doing overtime to report “snowmageddon and snowpocalypse” on the East Coast. I have heard just about enough.
All the adjectives that are being used to describe the snow in the mid-Atlantic States just do not resemble anything I have ever seen before! When I look out my window in winter, I see:
- beauty
- a blanket, soft and white
- gently falling, white dust of nature
- tranquility in heavenly white
- cleanliness and freshness
- sparkle and glisten
- crystaline air
- white fluffy pillows
- and a quietness in new fallen snow
Not chaos, confusion and catastrophe! With all the disasterous adjectives that the weathermen use to describe the snow, it is no wonder panic ensues.
Instead of cursing snow, how about embracing it, playing in it, walking in it and celebrating it! It does wonders to refresh and renew the soul!
Don’t you love that global warming?
