A Diva at midnight..

I can hardly believe how much snow has been falling here in Montreal. Yesterday I finally got over my denial about it all, and bought myself a snow suit. Nothing fancy, but enough to do the job.

I admit, I wear skirts 9/10 days a week and it had been starting to feel a bit frisky.

So, last night at midnight I went for a walk through the park in my new winter snow suit. Most of the areas in the parks are crisp, untouched by human feet. The snow has been so deep most people just don’t bother going off the beaten path.

But I’ve never been one to do as most people do.

So, last night, while the moon was in her full splendor and the stars were bright I found the thickest show I could and trudged, trudged, trudged my way through the park. I couldn’t help but wonder how it must feel in parts of the world where it’s snowy AND frighteningly cold.

I would feel the snow pass my knees and almost feel fear wondering if I’d make it to the next stretch of sidewalk. I felt like my knees were up at my chin in order to get them out and make the next step. I just wanted to fall back and lose myself in the snow, but wasn’t sure if I’d make my way back out easily.

And so, while yesterday we enjoyed sunny skies and snowy carpets, today the skies are filled again with white rains from the Heavens.

I’m putting on my snow suit and heading out for another adventure. This time, with the kids! Hehehe…

And you?

What do you do to let yourself go? When do you walk off the beaten path, throw caution to the wind and play like you did when you were younger.

Marvel at snowflakes, take the time to be and play and bask in what living is all about.

Turn the TV off.

There are enough people out there worried about money, and fighting amongst themselves. You don’t need to. Life is out there and yours to play in.

Remember, EVERY SINGLE snowflake is different, and yet they’re all 6 sided! That fact alone is hours of wonderment and play.

Frosty kisses and hugs,

Tera
