The Break Up: Dear Snow

Dear Snow,

We need to talk… Now, you know I love you, right? I have for a really long time. There are days each year when I just long to be with you… to feel your cool fluffiness on my tongue as I look skyward and to hear the sweet sound of silence as you cover the ground and a little pitter-patter as you gently touch my coat.

But here’s the thing… somehow we seem to have become exclusive when I really wanted to keep things light. It seems sometimes like you want more of my life than I’m prepared to really give, you know? I think we should see other elements.

I’ve begun thinking a lot more lately about Sun.

There’s something I never told you: Sun and I had a brief but oh-so-memorable affair in January. It was just me and Sun for a whole week… we enjoyed drinks on the beach, swimming, and just chilling together. I’m sorry. It’s not you, it’s me… I just need something different right now.

Maybe we can pick things up again next November… but for now I think we need to take a break. I hope you can understand.

With love,

Michelle
