It snowed today. Although the familiar feeling of coziness returned, as I sat at my desk sipping coffee and writing, I began to feel a little bit unsettled. I was thinking about the new job I get to go to tomorrow and everything that February holds in store. And I was wondering if it will go fast or slow, be good or bad, stay winter or change to spring.
I’m sitting by the fire now, stifling yawns, and still wondering the same things. My feelings are a bit all over the place, to be honest. I don’t know if I’m holding on to these cozy winter days or if I’m looking forward to spring. I don’t know if I’m scared or excited or simply confused.
What I do know though, is that when I look out the window and see light snow falling in the glow of a street lamp, I know that it’s still winter.
