Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Appreciating winter

6 of 32

It was not easy being a winter baby and living in Southern California. You would think that after 43 years, I would have adjusted to the warm sunny climate. It was not until I moved to North Carolina and saw those winter trees for the first that I appreciated how connected my spirit is to that beautiful time of year. The mov... More..

The natural look. An image of being clean, fresh, healthy, and carefree. But there's a big difference between the image of a natural look and the reality, especially as we age.

Laura was devastated the day she attended her husband's office Christmas party. Hired only three months earlier, Fred would come home each evening and tell her about the office melodramas, always ending each commentary with a negative remark about the person's appearance.
