A winter storm hit overnight．I opened my backdoor only to find six inches of wet，heavy snow piled up against it．I knew I had quite a job of shoveling(铲除)out ahead of me，so I grabbed my snow shovel．It looked a lot more work than I did．I sighed and pulled on my boots，gloves and heavy coat．

The cold wind was below zero and cut into my face as I slowly shoveled off my car roof． After that．I started my way to my daughter’s house，shoveling the path as 1 walked．It took a while to get her driveway clear and I knew I still had a lot to do．Next came the paths down the hill to my own car covered in snow．I grabbed the broom to sweep them off as well．I felt uncomfortable when the wind blew the swept snow back．Then I started to shovel out my driveways．My back was aching as I worked．I wished I could be building a snowman instead of shoveling．Winter sure had seemed a 10t more fun when 1 was a boy．

When I finished．I examined my work．It didn’t look half bad．I smiled and looked at the woods covered in white．They were such a special sight．I leaned on my shovel and took it all in．Then I thanked God for the beauty of the day and started up the hill with the snow shovel in one hand and the broom in the other．Suddenly，an urge came over me and I dropped them both．I spread my arms．fell back into the blanket of white and happily moved my aims and legs to make an angel in the snow．

As you go through the seasons of this life，take joy in your work．Take joy in your play．Take joy in your life．Remember that the course of your days rests in your own hands．And always know in your heart that God loves you through the snowstorms as well as in the sunshine． 24．According to the first paragraph，why did the author sigh?
