It has been snowing like Buffalo or Alaska or somewhere even worse. It is so cold and the amount of snow is unbelievable for NYC. My car was completely covered last week. It was covered because it snowed 18 inches but also because the sidewalk and street plows piled even more onto my little car. The weather kinda reminds me of my life right now. Cold and overwhelming.My sister Jen sent me a song by Mumford and Sons called 'After the Storm' and I am holding onto the lyrics that say "one day love will no longer break your heart". I believe humans are such resilient creatures. Moments when I feel like I have accessed every bit of energy from within there is always more. There is just something bigger than me giving me what I need to continue life. There are things that give me energy and I am thankful for that. I love my Wednesday night meditation classes, long runs through the snow on Saturdays, new friends at this Church I started going to, and my faithful friends and family that keep picking me up and carrying me.
So I love this picture at the top of my post for so many reasons. I love that even though there is so much snow and its so cold, there is the sun. There is warmth and there is light. Maybe no matter how dark and cold it seems there is always a chance for the sun to shine in.
