different motivation today

I was busy on my computer and noticed it was getting darker

I knew the afternoon was going to be cloud covered so I didn't pay much attention

I glanced up as I prepared to move to the next task

and immediately closed my computer,

grabbed my phone,

quickly walked to the laundry room for socks and a coat

and laced up different shoes

different day

different motivation

different beauty

I like to walk in the snow

there is something calming and wonderful about it

that can't be replicated under any other conditions

it seems to snow most often when it is dark

I don't feel like it would be wise to walk by myself then

so I don't

some might call today's event a quick snow squall

I call it a sweet encounter with the God who loves me well

it was like walking in a snowglobe for about ten minutes

then, slowly, the sun came out 

I finished my walk enjoying a different kind of wonder
