We are at the front end of a winter storm. I am grateful for the many people who work on the road crews. They are out plowing, salting, and working to keep us safe in the most inclement weather.
Remember, they have families at home, too. Be kind.
It is so easy to get impatient or frustrated. Instead, choose gratitude. Be intentional. Look for the simple gifts. A freshly plowed road is a simple gift.
We have a neighbor who spoils us by plowing us out after most winter storms (We appreciate you, Jim!). I kind of like being snowed in, but it is comforting to know that you can get out if you need to go.
“He directs the snow to fall on the earth and tells the rain to pour down." -Job 37:6
Take in the storm. Look for the mysterious and magical. Take in the beauty and practice "the pause."
Today, I am grateful for snow plow drivers.
