Darkening Skies

Darkening skies blast colder challenges; the wise meet them with grace. What brings hardships, shapes character; builds strength. Face challenges well and be the best you can; success is yours.

Cold weather is stimulating. It often brings hardship as you say. Today it is snowing in NYC and so I am going to miss a poetry reading in Brooklyn which I usually go to. Peace & Love Matthew Anish

I see you are probably in the bowels of this winter blizzard; we are too. school is closed today. Nice one! I am building strength by staying inside today. Not sure I will go to my studio which is a mere twenty steps across the driveway. Nice one!

Well, we have snow but, it's not nearly as bad as the temps...they've closed the schools two days because of them. Still the neighborhood kids aren't out there in the snow; it's been very quiet. Thanks for dropping by again.
