Live in the season

Live in each season as it passes, breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit and resign yourself to the influences of each.

I have always been a live in the moment girl in my philosophy but in reality it seems I am always one step ahead of myself thinking about what I will do tomorrow or the next day. Right now I'm thinking that Spring should hurry on its way. I don't want the days to pass any faster. It seems they fly by quicker than ever these days. But this winter seems grueling. It has stayed very cold for a very long time. It never seems to get above freezing and this morning when I woke up it was zero. Friends are struggling with frozen pipes. 

   I am lucky to be safe and warm and we certainly don't let the weather keep us in. I know this is  season that will pass so I try to appreciate its beauty. So I will watch the Olympics and enjoy the figure skating tonight.
