A simple snow storm
It snowed all week...well it snowed, then it froze, then it blew, then it rained frozen, then it rained normal.
We were to have our semester exams this week but all had to be postponed. I have no idea how we are exactly going to make up for all that we missed but the amazing thing...it will be all right. My car, kermit, lost its place in the garage due to the Mercedes we were selling and somehow it lost some of its new car shine with its snow-cap.
The one day before it became very uncomfortable, the day before the wind came straight from the throat of the icy tundra, it was still, beautiful and white. The fire was burning, and we were gently restrained by powers outside of our choices. One wind, one snowstorm, one week of a simple weather system and nothing can go on as normal.
Makes you wonder how much control we have really about anything. Like the snow at the end of this lilac bush...precariously balanced, at the whims of the wind, but oh so spectacular in its simplicity.
Precious is our life...
