Pressed between October’s sweet Halloween candy and December’s bright Christmas lights, November is an ideal spot to explore the Gifts of Winter. Walking in crunching snow. Making sweeping snow angels. Sipping hot chocolate. Decorating cookies with white icing. Yet these gifts are more than cozy sweaters and steaming soups. Let’s take some time to reflect on the wisdom, strength, and joy that come from the Gifts of Winter.
