Beauty of the Trees

The trees are massive and heavily blanketed with snow. The wind has settled, but little snowflakes still fall. The snow sparkles in the trees.
They remind me of all the friends I have back home. Sure, life can be a little dull, but my friends will always be there.
Have I really never noticed the beauty of life in moments like this?

I see the outline of a temple in the distance -

Should I continue towards the temple?

Or stay and admire the sky?
