What kind of winter
person are you-snow lover, fireplace snuggler, winter adventurer, or indoor
hibernator? Elaborate.
I am a
stay inside and do what I do most days
The Pantone
colour of the year is cloud dancer, described as a gentle, billowy off
white shade. The colour symbolizes 'peace, clarity, quiet reflection,
renewal, and a soft reset'. Of the terms just listed which do you need
most in your life this winter?
Peace
and quiet
Every cloud has a
silver lining, on
cloud nine, head in the clouds, storm clouds gathering,
or cloud of suspicion...which 'cloud' idiom do you most relate to
currently? Explain.
After
much thought I have decided it’s storm clouds due to the tension I have felt in
the family.
coconut,
cauliflower, cottage cheese, mayonnaise, onions, ranch dressing...of the white
foods listed, which would be the hardest for you to give up? Do you like all or
any of the foods on the list?
Mayonnaise,
I can not look at cauliflower without feeling ill, due to childhood drama.
Thomas Wentworth
Higginson is credited with this quote-
"How many
lessons of faith and beauty we should lose, if there were no winter in our
year."
Agree or disagree?
Tell us why.
I get
what he was saying and maybe he is right, but I am not sure if I agree or not
Insert your own
random thought here.
This week’s rando
thought is a poem I came across about Parkinson’s Disease.
In the
hush of dawn, the hands may shake,
A
gentle tremor, a subtle quake.
Steps
falter softly on the morning floor,
A
journey begun, not as before.
Words
may stumble, voices sometimes low,
Yet
courage lingers where shadows grow.
The
mind remembers, though time may haze,
The
laughter and love of younger days.
There’s
hope in science, and hope in friends,
A will
that bends but never ends.
Though
Parkinson’s whispers and tries to confine,
The
heart beats steady—brave, and fine.
