Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and thought, “who is this person?” After all the experiences, friends, choices, and happenstance, who is it that I am? Sometimes winter is thought of as a dreary, sad time. Lets rearrange that way of thinking. Winter being in between fall and summer is not only a chance for purification but also rededication. Snow falls delicately, coating the ground with a pure white covering. As snow melts, it makes a bit of a sludgy mess, flowing down sidewalks and streets. Making its way through streams, rivers, oceans, and the inevitable life cycle, that water is transformed. Finding strength in these winter months can be difficult. Remembering this cycle is helpful though because it is a distinct reminder that each day holds the possibility of new ideas, life paths, and inspiration. With perseverance we can see past the sludge to find this beautiful moments, people, and ideas, which enable transformation. New hopes and dreams lead us forward in these cold months have the possibility of covering or replace the running river of melted snow. Something that didn’t work out before can be forgotten or re-worked. Starting a new story with these winter months, or maybe a new chapter within an already exciting and worthwhile story that is already in motion makes me feel alive and inspired. We are who we want to be.
