“If we had no winter,
the spring would not be so pleasant;
if we did not sometimes taste of
adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.”

Glancing at the picture above; which I snapped while out and
about post yesterday’s combination snow + ice storm, I am clearly reminded of
winter’s unique beauty. Okay,
yesterday morning—en route to work with ice on the roadways—I truly didn’t have
the same frame of mind (smile).
Pausing for a few moments, mid-day; however, I spied glimpses of splendor in what initially seemed adverse to me... A brief time in reflection yielded a fresh perspective.
And, no doubt, it will serve to make spring’s arrival one I cherish even
more.
Joy and peace!
