First Snowstorm
Scarborough (December 2004)

"To be interested in the changing seasons is a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring."- George Santayana

Just as our bodies were accustomed to fall’s varying temperatures, from its cold nights to warm afternoons, from merely having 2 layers of clothing to just enjoying a sleeveless T at night – here comes a new season.

Yesterday, was the “official” start of snow season, although from our desk calendar brought from a Dollar Store, it says it’d start on the 21st of this month. Official or not, the change has brought a lot of vehicular accidents (almost 600 – just in Toronto/GTA). Some attribute to the complexity of the mind to change driving ways from that of summer time and trying to quickly relearn winter driving lessons.

Life is like that. If we don’t prepare for the changes happening in our lives, we will experience mishaps. This week marks our 3rd month and the changes in our lives the past 90 days have really allowed us to grow and go through life together. Our life is like the season, we may fall like dried leaves now, be bond together – just like water turned into snow – but we expect to have a great coming back to life come spring.
