No Bad Weather #2: Gratitude Practices

By Jessica Pace

There’s a saying in Scandinavian culture, where winter days are sunless and icy– “There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes.” In an effort to clothe ourselves against a season of what is sure to feel like “bad weather,” the Voice presents “No bad weather: Finding joy in a COVID winter.” With topics ranging from reading the tarot and digging up local history to baking bread and cold-weather sports, we hope you’ll find something to warm you up while you keep yourself and your loved ones safe this winter.

“You make a life out of what you have, not what you’re missing.” -Kate Morton, from “The Forgotten Garden”

“The wisest thing you can do is be present in the present, gratefully.” -Maya Angelou

This week: some great options for cultivating more gratitude in our lives during a Thanksgiving season where it may be difficult to feel grateful.
