A snowflake weighs such a miniscule amount. Yet as they pile up, they become heavy. Dense. Oppressive. Crystalline water coats places otherwise comfortable, habitable. I would normally sit on this park bench and read, but I wouldn’t want to be so cold nor get so damp.
Yet there is something – something lighter than snow – that pummels the morning frost with unstoppable power. Sumbeams melt the snow, heat the earth, and bring life to everything. Snow, so light, is ended by something that weighs so much less.
So don’t discount your thoughts just because they weigh nothing.

Ooooo! Bummer. Sorry ’bout that, but on the upside — not unemployed. LOL
Haha, true. It’s also hard to focus on work at times like these, so I’m afraid I’m not being terribly efficient…
I love this and I have a feeling Dr. Seuss would enjoy the message too!
