It is just me, or are so many things in life just unreliable when it snows? I mean, I wake up to find snow on the ground, when I swear just a few days ago there was none, and I probably can safely say that in a few days there won’t be any. This whole global warming is making the weather patterns of the world so unstable. But because the snow decides to fall, 7:30 bus slowly creeps its way at my stop at 7:50. The lineup for Tim Hortons is all of a sudden just seems so much longer, because of all those extra people who think a hot chocolate is a necessity when it snows. I wish it would just snow for two months straight, so I can keep all my winter gear out without having to keep bringing my fall stuff and then putting it back. I feel like a schizophrenic with the Canadian weather, one day it’s cold, one day is warm, one day I’m bundled up to my nose, the next day I can wear a t-shirt. I miss the summer sun, but I’m worried in the summer we are going to be attacked by hailstones. Maybe that’s what makes the weather so important, the fact that its unreliable, we need to pay so much attention to it, because ultimately, it has the power to control what we can and cannot do. I mean, imagine that, a tsunami, an earthquake, a rainstorm, a snowstorm, all are things that can hinder our ability to carry out our daily routine. Maybe I’ll just be thankful it was only a few centimeters of snow, and not a snowstorm. The key is to find joy in little things, right?
