Let It Snow...

It’s supposed to snow tonight. SNOW! I’m very excited about this. 

I’ve always loved the snow. There is nothing like waking up in the morning and seeing everything covered by a beautiful white blanket. The snow has a way of making everything look clean. Sometimes, it even seems as though it is sparkling when the sunlight hits it. 

Snow is absolutely, breathtakingly beautiful. There is nothing better in life than sitting by the window with a good book and a steaming mug of hot chocolate while the snow falls outside. There is nothing like getting bundled up to go outside, and being able to see your breath. There is nothing like the feeling of coming inside and feeling instantly warmed up. 

The winter is usually seen as an end. It’s when some plants die, and the world outside seems to go a bit dead for a while. It’s also a beginning though. It’s the beginning of a new year, of a new chapter. At the end of winter is the beginning of new life, when trees and plants and some animals make their appearances. I think snow is nature’s way of showing us true beauty in something completely simple and pure.
