Canadian winter coping mechanism:
  1. Go for a wander just after sunrise.
  2. Look for frozen puddles in the dim shadows.
  3. Stare at them.
  4. Take particular care to avoid being mowed down by smartphone-addicted motorists.
Maybe you’re not Canadian and maybe the notion of things freezing in winter is foreign to you. No matter, because tiny, short-lived wonders are happening everywhere, usually in the shadowy margins where nobody bothers to look.

So look. We could all use more opportunities to have our eyebrows raised and our spirits lifted.
