Winter blew in this weekend and left me happy.
I've never been so happy to see snow. It seems like everything at home just feels right.
I stop and think about how my heart feels full several times a day. You know how you feel when you've been feeling so bad for so long and then you get better and everything just feels so happy and wonderful? I get teary just thinking about it.
I can't believe Thanksgiving is almost here. I love that day.
And the soundtrack of my life keeps playing in my mind. Today, it's my Winter Song. :)

Love the song. You should check out Over the Rhine. Same style.

I love sara's music. Have you seen her music video gonna get over you? I laughed for a good 10 minutes.
I had never seen this one. I loved it!
And I totally know that feeling of having a full, happy, grateful heart. It always brings tears to my eyes as well.
So happy to hear that you are feeling better.

Wow... very meaningful. Sharing this with a friend who recently lost her 20yr old daughter.

Oh my goodness. I SO know what you are talking about! I'm very happy that you are able to enjoy life to the fullest again. Hoping you can laugh & play all day with family this Thanksgiving. & oh yes...the song? One of my personal faves for quite some time now. :)

It was a beautiful snow, wasn't it? This is our first winter in the inland northwest and we were a little surprised by the two feet of snow we got. It definitely put me in the mood for Christmas!
Hugs and Thanksgiving blessings,
Pam

Beautiful song but toooo sad. I listen to that and feel the gloom settling in. Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving. You have a lot to be thankful for.

Beautiful song! Another Sarah (McLachlan), a Canadian musician has a Wintersong that is one of my favorites.
Just discovered this site and love it!!!
A friend and I are trying to plan a trip to the show in June....all the way from Northern British Columbia!
Winter wishes from the north!

Thank you for sharing! I am feeling this today. I'm sharing in your emotions. It was dark for so long, and then, maybe just on faith, we found some answers. I can't remember the last time I greeted winter and the holidays with such happiness.
Godspeed to you while healing.
