One fine day you get up in the morning... make great plans for the day ahead... "To Do list" is ringing the bell in your mind every now 'n' then. You are energetic since you just got up from the bed... excited to live a great day ahead... want to make most out of it... targetting to strike off all the "To Dos" in the list. You get ready for catching a bus. You open the door with lot of efforts to put your first step out.
Its not what you want to see early morning. All white! Green grass infront of your house is now covered by white sand. The car parking infront of your house seems to be packed. All cars still in the parking lot, which is weird. The White Sand - The snow is all over the place. The trees seems to be refrigerated. You run your eyes all around the place... all around the parking lot..all around the walkway... its seems to have lost its color to the color White. You look around and White seems to be the color of the day. You are frustrated with White and some what afraid too.
You gather all courage you could and step outside to face the storm. And your first step sinks you 6 inches deep in the snow. But its just a first step and you plant next step... this step with extra caution and you sink again... quite a few inches. You are not the one who would give up easily... and you continue... you continue step after step... everything seems to be controlable. You seem to be at the top of the world. You enjoy this adventure in snow.
The storm starts getting worse... it starts to get windy... snow fall takes the form of hail. Its changes from snowfall to hailing. And its a wonder how even a small hail made of water hurts you drastically when falling with force and in large quantity. You still manage to walk without slipping or falling. Few more steps and finally you see a patch without snow... where its different than White. Its brown and shiny. Its ICE. More dangerous than snow. One wrong step is enough to lose your balance. And when you fall no one knows what part of your body will touch the ground first and what part will break.
Ice on the ground... its an indication of sleet... rain falls on ground and freezes. A layer of ice is laid all over the ground after the frozen rainfall. Trees are frozen. Water freezes on trees... Its so cold, water freezes before reaching the ground. And in this all you think of making most out of the day.
More coming soon.
