The Origin of Snow
A girl asked her father:
”Why does snow fall?”
The father told the girl to close her eyes, let her spirit observe how the snow fell from the clouds and imagine one snowflake landed on the palm of her hand.
”How does it feel?” He asked.
The girl extended her little fingers and imagined hundreds of snowflakes flying down from the sky. She felt that single drop of fluffy ice touching the palm of her hand and her heart lifted with joy. With a big smile, she answered:
”It feels like the clouds decided to take form so that I could reach them.”
Her father smiled and told her that was the secret of the origin of snow:
“You see, snow is how God shows us that if we see reality through our spirit, then nothing is impossible, even the sky comes down to greet us and expands to caress our steps as we walk in the world.”
