Snow started about 10 this morning and has yet to let up. Weather sources say it will continue until tomorrow about the same time. Meanwhile, temperatures keep to the low 30's, kids play about having fun with yet another day out of school.
And, showing up out of the snowy blanket, I find the image of Lincoln appearing in the snow crushed and framed by my shoe tread. His day is past but is still remembered.
I love to hear and feel and snow crunching under my feet when it snows. Seeing footprints in the snow take me back to childhood days of fun and play. And, even though the energy and spunk of childhood is long gone, joy is still a part of what is to be found when one continues in some part and way along life's journey.
Running, jogging, outside walking are all activities which bring back life in it's fullest. Layering up with layer upon layer, pulling the hat down ever so tightly, and the gloves snugging into the coat sleeves....all reminders which take a person back to again experience the glibness of being free before responsibilities were recognized as being forever there.
Take care. Bundle up. Stay warm. Make a day to enjoy the snow. It'll be gone soon for us in the south and there will be other ways to remember and celebrate.
