One of the greatest lessons in our lives is the recognition of winter. Winter can often seem to pass quickly or become a heaviness that drags on and on. Having the right attitude serves us well. We can face the winter of our heart or become weary and tired. We no longer see the beauty of the season. We begin to focus on the cold and the filthy roadways. Another attitude can be one of acceptance and realize that beyond Winter there is always Spring.
