Winter Sun

The winter sun, as cold as it is, brings warmth and joy into my heart.

Raised on the skiing slopes and frozen forests, the cold, sharp winter sun overlooks the peaks of frozen mountains and sleeping trees. As hostile as the frozen waters and ice reflections might seem, the air feels free and the silence brings peace. The sun graces us with its presence and watches over us for fleeting hours of the winter days. It reminds us that there is still light in these dark days and lights up the snowy trees with an unnatural air of magic. It is in moments such as those that I feel so lost in the awe of nature's beauty that I forget all the bad in the world. Because, how could evil exist in this world when nature can look like this? When every step you take feels magical and when the snow on your fingertips feels unreal?

And I know that this might not be a shared experience, but the freedom and peace that comes with the frozen world, the snowflakes falling, the skis and ski poles, as well as the reassurance of the piercing winter sun truly makes everything worth it .
