Maybe I should have been a meteorologist.
I had to force myself away from the Weather Channel today. Whenever there is a weather event, I am enthralled. I cannot get enough information.
What is it about these storms that is so mesmerizing? Primarily, I think it is the affirmation that Mother Nature still rules. Modern man may think that he is in control but it just takes a “snowmaggedon” (as our President dubbed this one) to put him in his place.
I delight in the quietude of deserted city streets and the joy of families playing in the snow. The only thing that mars my enjoyment is knowing that there are those who are suffering because of the storm. Those who have lost loved ones or are sitting in a cold, dark house are not beguiled with a world covered with a thick white comforter.
