First Snow
As I look out the window, I see the blue sky and lots of trees. It is quite tranquil, yet I am very aware of the fragility of this life as I know it. That’s all the more reason for me to be mindful and present each moment with whatever comes including my own internal storms as I did this summer. Just as the Snowmaggedon didn’t break our community but got us on the path to resilience, my depression didn’t break me but made me more resilient. And there’s an abundant supply of blessings all around.
