The cold doesn't bother me anyway -- Let it Go, The Frozen (Disney, for those of you who don't have middle schoolers).
The song speaks to me for some reason. I think it has a message for me and for many others, particularly women. Every time I hear the end I think "so there!"

Attention without object is a supreme form of prayer. Simone Weil
The Zen master Ikkyu was once asked to write a distillation of the highest wisdom. He wrote only one word: Attention.
The visitor was displeased. "Is that all?" So Ikkyu obliged him. Two words now.
Attention. Attention. -
