Today, the sun was shining. Beautiful, the sky a perfect robin's egg blue. I needed to be in it today. To take part in the world, and appreciate the fact that this is where I am. Today, at this moment, sitting in the sun.
I could not stand to be inside for one second longer.
Winter does this to me with it's gray days and rain.
Then when the sun decides to come out to play and calls to me
I simply cannot resist.
I don't want to resist.
The smell of the air, with the rich scent of the earth after a rain is so cleansing. I inhaled deeply taking it into my lungs, and just sat on my back porch.
I wanted only to be.
I didn't want to think of the things I needed to do, the projects that are looming, or the laundry that needed washing.
Then my daughter came out side and sat beside me, rested her head on my shoulder and said not a thing.
I think she felt it too.
What a special moment, with her hand in mine.
Damn but I am a lucky woman.
