While winter is a favorite season for some, with fluffy white snow blanketing the earth, kids in their mittens sliding downhill in toboggans, steam rising from hot chocolate, the smell of wood burning in the fireplace, and the smell of roasting chestnuts; others think of ice, introspection, and isolation.
