Just had an amazing experience running in the snow, while it is sticking, for the first time. Giant globs of snow were flying in my face as I blitzed through a white curtain up on the vista. It was mildly breezy too. It wasn't that scary to run on the powder that stuck because I didn't slide at all. If temperatures had been lower the ground would have froze and I would have carefully maneuvered home. It was an ideal situation for running in the snow that may only happen once in a lifetime.
For my courage I was blessed with an unforgettable experience. Many of them are like that. It's important not to let small fears deprive you of unique and memorable experiences. So long as the risk is calculated and not too dangerous you will not regret it.
My youngest son was waiting at the window for me to come home. When he saw me, his face lit up like an angel's. Apparently he had been worried about me getting lost or hurt in the snow. It touches my heart that he was more worried about me than being mesmerized by the flakes.
