Winter

Winter is only beginning. I can't imagine what the rest of it will bring. In a few short weeks, cold has begun to seep into my bones, pushing all my body warmth into my heart, which now is beating with a new determination and speed. My mind is unsure about this new rhythm and wants to understand, because, ultimately, all decisions come from the mysterious and faithful heart. So where are we going? Brain awaits an answer. Heart beats ever faster and stronger, almost like laughing, doesn't respond, looks up at the sky. Brain can't even follow her gaze because now she is looking beyond the sky and no one else can follow.

And in the blood, cells carry the simple message, "Everything will be okay. Everything is always okay."
