Missing the snow

in CCC6 months ago

Is it possible to miss what we never had? I think it is, because looking at the image fills me with a deep longing for those snowmen I never built and those snow angels I wanted to make, surrounded by friends, enjoying the cold that brushes against the skin trying to seep into the bones.

The white landscape is tinged with the vibrant colors of children's and adults' coats, drawn in by the fascinating beauty of snowflakes falling, forming an immense field of icy cottons where joy is intense but ephemeral, because that white landscape can also become an eternal sleep if we surrender to its embrace for too long.

¿Es posible extrañar lo que no tuvimos nunca? Creo que sí es posible, porque al ver la imagen siento una profunda añoranza de esos muñecos de nieve que nunca hice y de esos ángeles de nieve que querría hacer, rodeada de amigos, disfrutando del frío que roza la piel intentando meterse hasta los huesos.

El paisaje blanco se tiñe de los colores vibrantes de los abrigos de niños y adultos que son atraídos por la fascinante belleza de los copos de nieve al caer que forman un inmenso campo de algodones gélidos en los cuales la alegría es intensa pero efímera, porque ese paisaje blanco también puede convertirse en el sueño eterno si nos entregamos a su abrazo por demasiado tiempo.

No, it's not possible to miss what you never had. Missing belongs to "possessing". What you feel is something else.
During my entire life I might have made only once or twice a snowman and never a snow angle and the same counts for my children. Those snow angles is what you saw in an American film and like we all know films are rarely realistic.

The truth with snow is no trains, no buses, breaking legs, dangerous, slippery outside. Long traffic jams, people sent home early, schoolsetc closed, no heating, the water spoiled and trying to defrost the water pipes and buying groceries or letting the dog out is challenging.
No time to play around and make snow angles or snowmen.

By the way you can make awesome sand sculptures, swim in the sea, sleep on beaches, open fields and have an easy, relaxing life not fighting nature and trying to survive (frozen toes and hands included) or?

😉

Lol yeah sometimes I use a kind of poetic license to write no sense paragraphs! I'm guilty 😆

I'm sure that if something happens and in this country falls snow, probably most of us will die in less than a single day. We rarely have under zero degrees. But with all this warm weather we don't have beach or sea 😭 only the hot weather 🔥🥵

For sure not everyone will die within one day I mean if you already have zero degrees minus 1 minus 2 minus 10 is not that far away and I'm sure you find a way to stay warm even if it's sitting close to another. The good thing about snow is that it isolates.

You have no see how about a river? A river or lake are great for swimming as well.

Sometimes people die here in winter because the use of carbon to climatize their home, and we rarely have less than zero. But I saw a documentary about people living in Siberia (-70 Celsius degree) so I guess you can stay alive if you are smart and do the work.
