January Blues and What I do

Its so cold. I often ask myself why did my ancestors stay after 1 winter, of this Maritime Weather. The answers are many and I imagine once they hit land after crossing an ocean they just wanted to get busy. If they arrived any other month other than January then they fell in love with what I love about our province. Our province rich in soil rich in its tides the sandy beaches the hiking and skiing trails. No wonder they stayed. But the hibernation that comes with winter. Last night I realized that I stay in too much during the cold months. I forget that its in conversation with like minded people, that get my creative juices flowing. Whether its an event a gathering a walk through a Market you meet with people. The vendors the people who are out for the same thing a communion with community. So I'm going to arrange for a dinner party a game night in the middle of this deep freeze. Like minded friends, thats whats needed for the January Blues. The forever friends that bind the journey with stories and memories and just plain happiness. So yes "Nike" I will "Just Do It".
