Doors
A shut door says, “Who are you?”
Shadows and ghosts go through shut doors.
If a door is shut and you want it shut,
why open it?
If a door is open and you want it open,
why shut it?
Doors forget but only doors know what it is
doors forget.

I spent last week with family who welcomed me with open arms and open doors. Father Winter opened his doors as well and we had a white Thanksgiving.
However, all good things must come to an end and no matter how much fun you had, when you are 464.8 miles into a 675 mile return trip...
...you are very happy to be welcomed back to your home state.

The weather's been cold here in Hawaii too! But most certainly not snow worthy. :P
