January 2, 2010

It’s cold outside.   Too cold to go out and play I think.  

I’m not a cold weather kind of person and it can really get me down, especially when accompanied with gray skies.   I will usually find myself complaining on a day like today about the frigidness of the air, preferring to stay in the heat and pretend it’s not so miserable outdoors.  I get grumpy and out of sorts, trying to shake off the cold in my mind and in my bones.

What I realize today is that it is again, a half and half kind of thing.  It’s a conscious choice I will have to make.  I can think about the temperature hovering near the freezing mark and the way my skin hurts with the wind blowing or I can choose to focus on the sun, which is shining strongly, lighting the yard and removing the gray from the skies…. forcing herself into our otherwise chilly day.P1180472

It’s a choice and a decision I will have to make…..and for today, I will make sure that my vote and my focus go to Miss Sunshine.
