Will and I took a walk in the woods last evening while it was still snowing. It was so quiet and peaceful... and inspiring. As we walked Will quoted from "Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening" (Thanks, Natalie Kimbell), and we talked about the iPad commercial that we like so much and find so moving. "...the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse." But mostly we just looked around and watched the snow fall through the air... on our faces, on the trees, on the path.
Snow makes the woods look different. It gives shape and definition to the lay of the land, to the shapes of the trees and bushes, which is not evident without its cover.
In some ways, it does the same for us, when we let it.
