Defeating Harsh Winds

" The tree wishes for calm but the wind will not subside...."
Chinese saying

This is an observation which rings true to me 
The harsh winds of mortality 
The winds of broken love affairs 
The real wind of the winter
There are some escapes from this which I will list here:
Music
Good TV
Theatre 
Good films
a good poetry reading 
I am sure all of you are familiar with the winds I am speaking of 
It is my fervent hope 
that 
the winds 
don't harm you and your loved ones 
Winter is coming 
Hopefully not the winter of your souls
