Yes, yes, and anything, especially God's variety in weather, bring associations. There are NO MISTAKES in the Universe. Reject & rebuke torture ... in the completed work at Calvary (as we sing, JESUS PAID IT ALL , ALL TO HIM I WE ... He washed (Me) white as snow) shalom shalom in HIM< resurrected King

sometimes it can settle into your soul for a very long time, praying that one day a new love enters and erases the pain away, with love and passion, of the truest kind Alexis

Different events, different weather patterns, different people, can all trigger memories and bring them racing back. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

As the saying goes. Let the past be past, we don't know about the future. Only the present counts.
