In church this morning, we sang an Advent song about light and pain and confusion in the world.
Reading in bed this afternoon, snuggled under layers of sheet and cotton blanket and comforter, my brain registered a sudden downpour of rain quickly followed by strong gusts of wind. The rain sounds grew harsher, sharper — turning to sleet. Then the world quiets once again and I return to my book while snow falls softly beyond my window.

I’m with you. Seek shelter and weather the storm with a book.
