and i am very happy today

as i imagine

this is what it looks like outside.

and then i will go outside.

and i will keep imagining.

and in a few months

it will look like this

and then i will

praise the power

of the imagination

for making things come true.

the magic is back.

the first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event.

you go to bed in one kind of a world and wake up

in another quite different,

and if this is not enchantment then where is it to be found?

May you find stillness in movement, 

comfort in letting go,

sacred in the everyday,

and in all things –

 beauty.
