　 Temperature is part of my married romance Coming to New’York from Baltimore-where there is just one small snowstorm each year-1was 16 by a fireplace in my new home，wit fires 17 all day,just as what ancient people did at a wedding．

　 My husband，Peter,comes from northem Ontario，where winter 18 from September to May and cold wind is 19 ．”When Canadians have 30 below,they 20 it，”he says．“Cold wind is for crybabies．”

　 So to marry this man I had to learn to 21 for serious cold.

　 The word comfortable did not 33 refer to being contented．Its Latin root，comfortare， means to strengthen．The Holy Spirit is Comforter；not to make us comfortable，but to make us

34 ．we 35 not be warm but we are indeed comforted．
