Ah, the peace and quiet!
It's another one of those beautiful monotone snowdays in Maine. Here where I am, it's a very elegant and silent antidote to the over stimulating whirl of events going on in the world today. Not a hint of wind though I hear the mountains are getting hit with some pretty big gusts.

Well heck! It's about time we saw some snow - it cleans and brightens things up nicely.
It's been a very strange winter season up here. It's almost as if Mother Nature has been preparing us for what promises to be a very strange year and three ahead. Things will get very chaotic at times. We've seen the tip of the iceberg. But there always seems to be a balancing out eventually.
Every action in nature - that includes us, instantaneously creates a reaction. In the case of winter, it's summer. Every problem instantaneously creates a solution. In the case of the chaos in Washington, we just don't see it yet, but Universal Law dictates that what is put out there gets walloped one hundred-fold back! Fingers crossed.
In the meantime, get involved. Create some action, make some calls.

I sat in my own peaceful place today. I wanted to remember what it feels like, and what it looks like projected out there...today.
Today, Martin Luther King Jr. reminded me that there is still so much work to be done for civil rights.
Today, flags flown at half mast in honor of President Jimmy Carter's passing reminded me that the most important work to be done is now a grassroots effort to simply put our best selves out there.
Today, even the polar vortex that descended down upon our capitol on this inauguration day reminded me that it is our planet, not any man, holding the power that will always and ultimately have the last say.

Yep - it's been a tough winter up here. But January has been the toughest so far. Fortunately it's been too cold to rain, so we still have snow on the ground and on the mountain.
The strange new phenomenon is the number of days of a continuous ferocious wind. I think we're on day eight now. It's an unforgiving, biting and bitter, ice cold wind. It reminds me of someone. But that's another story.
