I'm Thinking and I'm Trying

I'm thinking about the snow. I'm trying to decide that it doesn't depress me and I'm trying to enjoy it. I'm thinking about how when I was a child I was in love with the snow. I have journal entries from fifth grade that describe the snow as the most peaceful time of my life. I remember enjoying crazy blizzards and not being horrified to walk home from school in them. I remember the snow men, snow fights, snow forts, and playing in the Boston Commons after church. I'm trying to be in love with the world like I used to.
