"Snow was falling,
so much like stars
filling the dark trees
that one could easily imagine
its reason for being was nothing more
than prettiness.”

In Delhi this time , weather is so freezing . It's getting colder day by day . All of us enjoy sleeping inside blankets . I remember , in my school days i used to make many excuses to stay back at home . Ice-cream in winters is enjoyed completely even if we end up sneezing at last . Today i came across new thing - pan in which ice ball was rolled . Imagine how delicious it will be in chilling winters !!
Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire . Its the time when we all sit in sun for hours without feeling hot , no trace of sweat . Makke ki Roti & Sarso ka Saag aaaaaah !! yummmy !! Hot Chocolate fudge or hot Gulabjamun .
October extinguished itself in a rush of howling winds and driving rain and November arrived, cold as frozen iron, with hard frosts every morning and icy drafts that bit at exposed hands and faces. December includes celebration of Christmas & New Year.
Recalling days of my school days , i remember that we used to wait for our winter vacations every year so that we can enjoy Christmas & New year nicely . Christmas was celebrated on a very large scale in my school . Santa used to give us chocolates & how can i forget the yummy chocolate cake . Yes , before enjoying all these we were told stories related to Christmas - its significance etc .
And celebration always ended up with song " We all wish you Merry Christmas & a very happy new year ".
“Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence.
Summer passes and one remembers one's exuberance.
Autumn passes and one remembers one's reverence.
Winter passes and one remembers one's perseverance.”
Then comes the New Year . New questions to be asked, embraced, and loved. Answers to be discovered and then lived in this transformative year of delight and self-discovery. Resolutions are made every year but very few of us follow them .
