"No miracle has cured the habit of stealing my own joy." Oof, that one leaves a mark, Tonya. Here's to cobbling more and and more of these crumbs of silence and joy.
Who said "be the weather you wish to see in the world?" Have I got that one right? no? Oh well. I think a desire for winter is a validation in the four seasons, in the "to everything turn, turn, turn." It's a recognition that nothing is either/or - everything is AND. Great piece!
I love this so much, Tonya!
Thank you for writing it and living it!
Thank you, Matt!
Great piece, got me right in the heart!
Thanks, Kirk!

That is 100% the lesson I need to learn! Thanks, Tabby!
Beautiful piece, and so many other stories wrapped inside of it. I hope all goes well for you and Paul. If you're ever out west, stop in for coffee.
Thanks so much, Sue. And I will definitely take you up on that coffee offer!
Good. We both need a good cackle but not for the same reasons.

I love that, and I agree. There's a time for a mental winter, like everything else.
What a beautiful examination of your heart - &, by extension, to everyone's. I love this honest & hopeful piece!
Thank you so much, Ellen!
