The start of 2025! a snow reflection!
It happened that I heard this Chinese song “The sound of snow falling “ this week sung by a table tennis friend that I decided to sing it out myself!
This song was popularized by the 2018 The Story of Yanxi Palace $45million Chinese drama. The lyrics
And melody were awesome.
As I was pondering over this song, I just realized that I did not or had not given much thought over if we can actually hear the sound of falling snow! LOL!
I can hear rains sounds yes! But snow? Light and fluffy - got sound meh? Well it does have sounds! Surprisingly !
I am a hot bodied person. So I love the cold. Oh yes! I love snowwweeee ! I recalled trying my first ski in 1998 in Muju South Korea? It took John and I hours coming down a simple gradual green slope! The body and the legs ached so much the next day!
But having mastered this art of skiing, we had overcome the fears of this downhill skiing. Such that our holidays were usually ski trips following 1998 first ski experience. Practice makes perfect- not that I am a good skier now , but handling the intermediate blue slopes is no longer an issue now.
I love snow. I love to see snowflakes. I love to play in the snow. I love the sight of the majestic snow covered mountains. I love snow flurries.
So this is the beginning a a new year 2025.
And yes , snow has lots of spiritual significance meanings too. So here goes my little snow video reflection. Like my first skiing , I first started journaling in 1998. Something that I learned from YWAM (Youth with a Mission). The art of mind processing as we learn to slow down and pen our reflections. I started with a yearly physical journal but migrated to a Blog in 2010. Inspired by a missionary to India, this blog name “As a Hen Gathers “ Matt 23:37 was birthed in 2010. On the clouds now I walked with my Father.
Snow- Purity , Hope & Renewal change of seasons. 2025 Here I come!

雪落下的声音
轻轻 落在我掌心
Gently drop onto my palm
静静 在掌中结冰
Quietly crystallize on my palm
相逢 是前世注定
Meet again is predestined ( prestined by previous life)
痛并 把快乐尝尽
Sorrow also experienced all kinds of happiness
明明 话那么寒心
Obviously the words saddened the heart
假装 那只是叮咛
Pretending that’s only gentle reminder
泪尽 也不能相信
Tears dried still unbelievable
此生 如纸般薄命
This life thin like a piece of paper
我慢慢地听 雪落的声音
Slowly I listen sound of dropping snow
闭着眼睛 幻想它不会停
Close my eyes wish it won’t stop
你没办法靠近
决不是薄情
You can’t get close
Not bec you’re heartless
只是贪恋窗外 好风景
Just that hankering the beautiful scenery outside
我慢慢地品
雪落下的声音
Slowly I savouring
The sound of dropping snow
仿佛是你贴着我叫卿卿
As if you nestled on me calling “honey “
睁开了眼睛
漫天的雪无情
Open the eyes
Whirling snow, ruthless
谁来赔这一生 好光景
Who to pay this whole life good time !
