This year was very different for me compared to previous years in many respects actually, but I will touch on one here. Normally, I dread the thought of winter coming. Summer just never seems to last long enough! I would so much rather it be warm and sunny outside than gray, snowy and cold. But this year, our first major snow came in early December, which seems to me actually kind of late compared to previous years. At first, I liked the whole ‘no snow’ trend that was happening. Day by day the weather would still be on the warmer side. I saw the leaves changing, I felt the seasons changing, but still no signs of snow! I kept myself from really thinking about this, and instead just enjoyed it, because I didn’t want to point it out and then jinx myself. But then as time went on, I kind of longed for the snow! I felt that the time was right finally, and I was ready to see snow again. I feel bad for those who live in the parts of the world where they are not able to enjoy all the seasons. I think that if winter was never to come, and snow was never to fall, I would actually be pretty sad! I would be like, “This just isn’t right.”
Right now I am looking out my window and I see the pretty white snow. I am glad that it is there for once, maybe it needed to come later for me to appreciate it this year. Still though, it better not cut my summer short next year! Then, I’ll be back to my normal snow-hating self
