Dear Winter...I think we need to see other seasons

Dear Winter...

I think we need to see other seasons...

Yes, I know our love for each other was a deep as the snow that's fallen almost every day since November...but lately you've been smothering me.

I long for green shoots, and branches that are budding, and I need to see the ground once again.

Dear Winter, let's break up

It's not as if you weren't faithful in sticking around, it's just that we are spending too much time together...how about we give each other some space.

I've started to take you for granted, being with you all this time..and I'm finding my eyes straying towards Spring, dreaming of days outside without your chilly grasp...and I have to wonder what else there is out there for me.

Winter, this isn't goodbye

I can tell you don't do goodbyes easily...but, maybe we could set up a meeting once again after Autumn comes to visit.

I'm looking forward to Spring charming us with its bright days and sprouting greenery. And when Summer comes...well it sings to our hearts.

How can I help myself?

So Winter..let's try seeing other seasons...it's all for the best.

Love, RURAL Magazine...

We can't believe how much we love our "word" it's great having one." Right...ah ha... And it's only for a year. Sure it is...once you start....it's a slippery slope. To me "the word" is like going into a pet store when you have absolutely no intention of bringing home that cute cat in the window... The next thing you know.. Yo...

If A Tree Falls

There's a phrase that reads... If a tree falls in the forest........ And no one is there. .... Will anyone hear it? Writing blog posts can feel like that at times... If I write it... Does anyone read it? Should I bother, is it even worth it? Then I realized....a blog post is like a tree in the forest. If it's been written, someone will read it and even if they don't leave a comment it's still be...

A Golden Lakeside Hike
