It's February here in Indiana. We've had an ice storm, we have snow on top of the still-here ice. And the weather is supposed to bring us even more snow in the next day or so.
I know that the ice and snow are causing problems for some people. I know it makes it slippery and dangerous out.
But for me...
Well. I *like* the snow. I like to see snow on the ground when it is cold out. For me, to have no snow when it is cold seems like a good waste of a cold day. It's also dreary. All the trees are dormant, the grass is brown, the sky is usually cloudy and grey.
It all looks depressing. But the moment you sprinkle snow all over, everything starts looking beautiful and ethereal.
I think snow is very beautiful, even when I'm digging out my van for the millionth time.
You can find something beautiful but still have it be a pain. It is annoying to have to wait for the roads to be cleared. But learning to enjoy the enforced waiting time is good practice for many things in life. Learning how to wait patiently is a hard one.
This winter feels like winter. There's been a good amount of snow. I rather like the snow.
I think it's beautiful.
