As I was sitting there looking through the window and watching the snow change the town’s scape thoroughly the word purification came to mind.
Do we need this amount of snow to purify our dusty city? Can this purification make our minds clearer and change thought patterns of the country? Will it bring so much needed cleansing?
If so, let it snow…..
Taken with my phone this morning from my office window.
The attached music is titled Pure as Snow.
It’s just starting here, Paula. I was all set to sing along to “let it snow” but this is much more calming.
I got you
. I knew I would 
While looking at the snowy landscape…..I’m abandoning to your marvellous music!
Bye,Paula
Ciao Anna
It’s relaxing to sit and watch the snow fall
I also think it can be inspiring too…
Some weather makes us to unconsciously slow down
so our brains can catch up with our bodies ….. ‘hahaha’
Very well captured…
In ideal conditions yes, but in these no … the town is paralysed completely.
You yourself mentioned above here in the post some good reasons to “let it snow” – in my eyes some really good reasons – if they work, they do often…
Yes, I did but it went tooooo far
You don’t believe it makes a change..?
Now it is beyond laughing matter, Drake.
I know, but no matter what – so changes have to start somewhere or else it will start nowhere…
What’s all that white stuff? This transplanted East Coaster sometimes misses a nice purification … until it comes times to shovel it all!
Paula, who is performing that wonderful music (maybe the bigger question should be: where do you come up with all this wonderful music)? That’s right up my alley!
I have noticed you commenting on my music several times
It seems that our musical tastes match. It is a Japanese band Mono.
The old saying, “Pure as the driven snow’ comes to mind as I listen to your beautiful music, sitting by the pool in the heat of Belize.
Don’t rub it in, dear.. we are in pain over here
I think the snow does indeed serve a purification purpose Paula.
But I wouldn’t know since it’s currently 24C here. For mid January, I’l take it.
Good for you Phil
Make the best use of it 
Beautiful snow shot, Paula! Love the music. Hope the cold winter will go away soon….
Thank you for your wishes Amy … there is nothing I wish for more right now …
Beautiful words indeed, I think that purification can only start when each individual has the courage to stand before a mirror and look into hidden places and sincerely ask themselves…”In my thoughts, words and actions, have I had the courage to strive for humility, so that the doorway of love can be opened into my heart……”
God bless
I don’t mean to push again, but you should hear the music in this post though it is 10 min long
. GBU
Greetings again Paula,
I listened to the music while I did some exercises; I loved the beginning and middle parts and then towards the end it became chaotic. Very interesting indeed
I admit it is a long piece
. I liked the ending 
. Thank you for listening Konstantinte.
and to get back to your quote about humility …. the greatest problem in the world I think is ego … we should let go of it …..
Very true indeed pride is mankind’s biggest downfall and Achilles heel. Isn’t it ironic how we admire humility in other people but look at it as a sign of weakness when applied to oneself. I once read an explanation of humility in the bible being described as ” strength under control”. I thought what a beautiful way of explaining such a noble virtue
God bless you
strength under control
I like that. Thank you really Konstantine
You are most welcome
All that beautiful snow!!! It was in the 50′s here yesterday and the snow was melting like crazy. Not happy about that at all!
I’m glad someone is getting snow.
I can switch with you in a sec ….
No way man, snow tomorrow!!!
I don’t know man.. I think your snow can’t compete with this one…. The town is entirely white.. there are huge snowmen in every single street
All our lovely snow is melting! My first thought, when I started to read, was also «pure as the driven snow», and I see now that I was not alone. When the snow falls here, it certainly makes the city look spiffy, but that’s about all — it doesn’t change anything, except that it gets quieter and the traffic moves slower.
It does make quite a few changes around here, but not always for the better
Thank you Rebe 
Snow is nice. It feels like it cleans up everything (before it turns into brown mush..)
We got snow – tons of it … then we got mush, now we are getting fresh snow and ice, that will soon turn into black ice – ouch … with our winter service it is a disaster. We had bombers’ attacks in a part of the town that caused some serious panick among the citizens and today some prankers made a huge snow bomb at the site of explosions instead of a snowman
A snow bomb? That’s a good idea
Hehe
What is a snow bomb?
Some made a huge bomb sculpture out of snow on the day the town received too great amount of snow. It appeared on the location where explosions had taken place just a week earlier.. It was meant to be a prank… however the authorities haven’t resolved the explosion mystery yet….
Made me home sick!
Love this image, and the addition of the audio made it extra special. I love snow actually…
Thank you
Ciao ,Paula!
Ciao Anna, spero che stai bene
Paula, ma tu stai bene?
Mi dici qualcosa di te?
Ciao!
Looks cooooooooooold………..! Sure it is very beautiful but i am more of a summer person…. (sorry snow)
Not that beautiful
I would trade for summer in a jiffy 
, but I if you could choose it would be forever Autumn 
BTW: I liked the music.
I am glad. Thank you CG
Love the music……sounds like a laid back Mogwai
Thank you
I will look them up 
My….that is a lot of snow!
And how long does it take you to find the perfect music track?
Sometimes it takes hours of listening and searching in my music library, at times only half an hour, and sometimes as I take a picture I already have music in my mind
Wow chum, that is a lot of snow for your mayor to eat, I hope he has an appetite
