I wonder why we never appreciate winter, why we don't acknowledge that like all the other seasons life would not be the same without winter. we would not look forward to spring rains and vegetation. we wouldn't know how to appreciate summer either. So now that we're here wish we could take a moment to appreciate the season open our eyes wide and look forward to more family time in the cold season and more appreciation for home cooked meals. For those who can afford it, winter fashion is also just stunning. so why is it that we dread winter so? knowing so well that in its own way, not only is winter bright its also a form of hope, that no matter how tough times appear to be somewhere beyond the horizon there is season ready to burst into our lives.
Appreciating this time isn't ideal, of course. That said though, one needs to plan for winter like we do every other season. Fixing the wardrobe and bedding well on time and perhaps even make it a time to strengthen your relationship with your partner.. Learning how to make healthy snacks and soups together could really help a couple bond. There is something particularly appealing about staying home in the winter, entertaining only those with the same interests as us. It helps us discover things about ourselves and our partners that bring us closer in their cuteness or even in their annoying way. Learning that your partner's feet are always cold in the winter isn't a cute thing but it must mean they need your warm feet to warm their own, it is a bond thing. Or that they like to nuzzle is lovely to feel warm breath on the crook of your neck.
It is many things in our lives that brighten up our moods, for some is the smile of a child, others the laughter of a lover for some its the smell of print in a new book and for quite a few of us, its the light tap of paws on tile that fills us with complete and utter brightness. I feel as though I may be deviating from what I mean to explain, brightness is not in contrast, it just is. Next time you see a drooling baby on the next pew in church, or on the bench next to you in the doctor's office, look into his eyes seek brightness, you will never miss it.!
