Snow change.
6th January 2024: Morning Page.
How it all changes: on Saturday it snowed. And then it rained, destroying the beautiful white scene outside of my window. I long for its return, to view the scene of beauty. Yet, what it also represents is danger. Danger to those who are less able to leave their homes.
I am looking through my own eyes, not realising that I share the planet with others. Caught up in dreams of ‘snow supremacy’ and an ideal world. I don’t want my dream spoiled by an inconvenience.
And so, the same white that projects peace and joy, also presents potential harm to those who are older and frailer. Our minds deceive us and our delusions harm others.
In truth, white snow is an illusion, it may not be white at all. And as our ideas change, then our outlook will become more accommodating to the needs and? challenges of others.
