Six Word Story (102)

I have an intimate understanding of winter.

I have felt the bite of -45 temperatures, the grind of shovelling mountains of snow, the loneliness of dark gray days.

I am thankful for each of these things.

Winter goes with its dangers, but so does summer.

Just as the sun of summer holds a blessing, so does the blanket of winter.

Without an adequate snowfall in Northern Canada, wildfire season rages in the summer.
