Almost

Despite temperatures being well below freezing ~ far enough that the actual number is irrelevant ~ it’s just 


freezing. That hasn’t stopped the shoppers, the children going home from school, and those of us just blocks from 


our destination. The topic of weather ~ too cold or too hot ~ can get monotonous and quite frankly boring. Almost 


like politics: predictable, can be frightening, 

and at the same time changeable just when 

everything seems settled and comfortable. 

Despite all the discussion today, the worry 


is that in a couple of days, banks of snow 

will possibly be melting, flooding the streets 

with winter muck. Kind of like politics.


“He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.”

~ Friedrich Nietzsche
