How do you warm your heart, mind and body in winter?
Hot chocolate?
Movies?
Snuggling the one you love?
Hi, everyone.
I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs!

I like warm hugs, too - and I like Olaf.
Olaf has the best lines in Disney's movie, FROZEN.
Anna: Olaf! You're melting!
Olaf: Some people are worth melting for.
Have you seen FROZEN?
I loved it. So did my teenage daughters. It's just fun to watch.
It's a chick-flick, a date-night movie, and a children's show...with wonderful music that now tops the music charts thanks to Kristen Bell (who knew she could sing?), Idina Menzel, and Demi Lovato.

I dream of springtime, but for now - I'll warm my heart with the beauty that surrounds me.
One kind word
can warm
three winter months.

Winter
is the season
in which people try to keep the house
as warm as it was
in the summer,
when they complained about the heat.

Of winter's lifeless world each tree
Now seems a perfect part;
Yet each one holds summer's secret
Deep down within its heart.
Now seems a perfect part;
Yet each one holds summer's secret
Deep down within its heart.

It
is the life of the crystal,
the architect of the flake,
the fire of the
frost,
the soul of the sunbeam.
This crisp winter air is full of it.

Brew me a cup for a winter's night.
For the wind howls loud, and the furies fight;
Spice it with love and stir it with care,
And I'll toast your bright eyes, my sweetheart fair.
For the wind howls loud, and the furies fight;
Spice it with love and stir it with care,
And I'll toast your bright eyes, my sweetheart fair.

It
is said that in a certain faraway land
the cold is so intense
that
words freeze as soon as they are uttered,
and after some time
thaw and
become audible,
so that words spoken in winter
go unheard until the next
summer.
