Can you find the good?

I don't like winter, but I love the way it looks

I am not a fan of winter. I don’t like the cold, the heavy coats, the boots, the slippery roads etc., but I do love the holidays and how beautiful everything looks after a snowfall.


I have great views of my backyard with holiday lights and snow-covered trees and my front yard looks out on a park where there will soon be kids skating. In the meantime, I am enjoying watching the neighbourhood dogs play in the snow. I love all the holiday decorations and there are lots of them all around me. 



When we focus on what we like –or what we could like if we just took a moment—then what we don’t like tends to take on less significance. Whether it’s winter or some other situation, can you find the good in it, can you find something to like or maybe just remember that it is passing—spring is not that far away.
