God's light as blinding snow, from 2/13/2013 note

At the end of Ignazio Silone's Bread and Wine a woman protagonist attempts to trace the steps of an imposter-priest up into snow covered hills... she finds only wolves.

I find myself today feeling like this woman, twice betrayed and cold, I am face to face now with capitulation far from any place I might call home but still no closer to "God"... unless I can equate God's light with the blinding snow.
