it's the little things | Thursday ...

I sit here and contemplate 
All the things I cannot change 
How I wish my life was a clean slate 
So many things I would rearrange 
But life is not that simple 
And you I cannot control 

... 
Kassity Hietala


There is something comforting about a yard of undriven snow. 
The calm before the storm; it is orderly, it is neat, it is pure.  
But then it occurs to me that ruffled snow is generally the evidence of fun, frolic, and curiosity.  
And as I mentally picture that, I find myself smiling.  
Suddenly clean slates seem a little over-rated
and the urge to be in control not as important.

  1. Oh great thoughts...yes the pure driven/fallen snow is beautiful but there is a kind of tension when compared to the frolic of footprints.

  4. I agree. There is something about savoring the snow unsoiled for just a moment. That untouched look is stunning. However, after taking it all in, it just begs to be played in! It's very satisfying to put that first footprint down.
