Enjoy The Show While You Can
Wed Mar 01 2006

So, this was the first day of Spring. And we had our first serious (more or less) snow. I suppose that’s logical (?!)…from some odd point of view. The snowfall was as if fallen from fairy tale – thick and fluffy, dancing slowly to the surface to be melted down just in few inches of her and dropped dead into tiny puddles of thousand tears…it was relatively immense for this place and even managed to cover roofs and bushes in a thin layer of flour, as if someone didn’t bother to clean after yesterday pancakes’ cooking.

Anyway, there is something symbolic in the snow on the first day of the spring. As if the Nature tells you: enjoy the show for the last time. An opportunity to breath in a last chill from the air, to walk across the car park and leave white footprints behind. To draw random lines in a snow and watch what picture will appear in the end. A perfect white ending of Times Imperfect, A marked beginning of Times To Come. A promise of spring wrapped into the winters' farewell :-)


Note to myself:
*I think, I need to re-think (hmmm "think to re-think"???!!!) the way this diary is written. I've got to write more of me then of things around me. Have I become reserved about myself? I used to be more opened, I believe. (maybe I just don't remember...) I haven’t noticed when I’ve turned away from specifics to the general things…is this the way to write one’s diary? Anyway, I’ll try to add some aliveness into entries in future…well, that’s the intention, not a promise :-p

    Technically, the first day of spring (Spring Equinox - when the sun passes over the equator heading north in its position) is on March 20th (sometimes it falls on the 21st)...this year Spring officially starts at 6:26pm on the 20th...

    Just call me Ms. Smartypants :-P

    I enjoy your musings. In fact they frequently give me food for thought.

    But,yes, I'd like to know more about you personally, but I think I have a pretty good idea of the important parts of you.

    Shalom

    When we lived in the mountains we knew it wasnt really spring untill we had one last snow storm after the thaw.
    I think it is mother nature telling us to remember what the snow feels and looks.~smiles~

    i think we all do that from time to time concentrate on what we are contenpating or things going on around us it's natural i think. and it does in the end help to make up who we are by what we go through and how we peceve them and then altimatly how we handle stuff around us so in a way u are still being personal i think sometimes things u wright about just shows how smart and intiletual u are and thats a good thing thanks for the comment yes the babys room looks so nice if i can ever get my hubby to put the cammera software back into the com. i will take more photos to add to the entrys so u all can see how cool it looks but all in all i'm geting so tired from it all haveing trouble keeping up with the rest of the house as we work on this and i'm worryed about over doing and causeing early laber i been haveing bradican hicks a lot lately so i hope it's done soom for safty and peace of mind as well as a cleaner house lol .and it would be nice to have a bedroom again lol.
