It's easy to forget to look for the blessings in the winter coldness, but as I seek rejuvenation from the activity of the summer and fall, I do cherish the privacy of winter. While we all hunker down, there is also an increased sense of isolation this year, as we have already been spending so much time away from many of our social circles. This is the time to remember that being indoors can offer a cozy cocoon from the outside world and there are so many ways to enjoy the special qualities of the season.
