inspired writing Tuesday

 

Happy Tuesday, friends! Since we're all iced/snowed in around here, I thought I'd talk about it again today, and why I love it so much...well, that's not quite true. I love to look at it for a few days, and then I'm ready for summer. Anyway, here goes. 

...............................................................................................

There's a special kind of beauty in snow when you're at home. If quiets the whole world, pressing pause on everything loud and hurried outside your windows. The flakes drifted down like little blessings, quiet and unhurried, stitching a whole quilt over rooftops and branches. From inside, wrapped in warmth and cozied up by a fire, you can watch the whole scene unfold as if the earth is exhaling and settling into stillness.

There's a magic in how snow transforms the familiar~streetlights glowing like halos, trees wearing delicate lace, the yard turning into a clean, untouched canvas. Even the air feels different, hushed and holy, like the world is whispering instead of speaking.

And somehow, being home makes that beauty feel even sweeter. The contrast of cold outside and warmth inside reminds you of everything good~soft blankets, the scent of something brewing in the kitchen, the quiet comfort of being exactly where you belong. Snow doesn't just fall; it invites you to slow down, breathe deeper, and notice the peace you usually walk right past.

On days like this, you don't need anything extraordinary. Just a window, a warm room, and the gentle reminder that beauty can appear out of nowhere~falling from the sky, covering everything in grace.

How do you feel about snow/ice? What about when you're forced to stay home? I love it for a day or two, but I start going stir crazy after too long. I do think seeing people helps! I've talked on the phone a lot, Marilyn is probably coming over today, and Jonah's friends have been in and out. I played cards yesterday! That was fun, and I'll probably do that today once Marilyn arrives. We'll eat together, we'll listen to music, and we'll laugh as we get all caught up once again. I'd love to hear you, so chime in! Thanks for reading today, friends. Love to all!
