I returned to the US mainland after living 10 years in the tropics afraid of bad weather. That’s when I learned the Scandinavian expression “there is no bad weather, only bad clothing”. I tuned up my wardrobe, replacing sarongs and bikinis with warm scarves and beanies.
This record-breaking cold has me putting on extra layers of snow pants, and double down vests. With good clothing, Bob and I took our afternoon walk and enjoyed the beautiful crisp clear day. Returning to our warm home and studio, we watched the crows fly back to their roost in the pink sunset.
Do you have good clothing for this weather? With enough warmth, can you delight in aspects of this cold snap? Ki to Happiness marvels at the birds “who neither sow or reap”.
