Run, through the snow, slush, down the icy sidewalk to read "A Circle In the Snow" the latest blog entry of 85 Broads Member, Aidan Donnelly Rowelly, Author, Blogger, Author of novel LIFE AFTER YES (5/10 HarperCollins/Avon) and blog Ivy League Insecurities.

I keep going back Aidan's blog today. To her reflections -

"It was not just a long day. It was a circular one. A day on which I glimpsed death and life and life and death. A day on which I participated in a grand goodbye. And a small hello. A day on which I was pummeled with the reality that we – all of us – are threatening the life of big whales and goofy plants and amazing lizards."

"On this Thursday morning, still dark but getting brighter, I look out the window at snow on branches. I gaze out and think of beginnings and ends, of life and death. Of the path unwinding. Of that circle that holds us all."

Maybe a cold winter day just brings these emotions into sharper focus.
