It Felt Cool This Morning And That Was A Gift
Author: siggyIt felt cool this morning and that was a gift. The ground and plants were still wet. It had rained last night. There had been too many hot days and before I know it they will be gone. Summer is winding down: soon Labor day will be here and the kids will be back to school. Today I will enjoy the weather exactly how it is and when it changes again I will not dismay. Every day is perfect and the greatest gift is today. Somehow this year I missed picking the wild blackberries but there is a frozen pie to remind us of all the raspberries I picked. Every season has its own gift.

Funny, but just this morning I was saying to Tom that the light is different. It has shifted a bit, and it is easy to feel that summer is fading, even though the temperatures remain high, as well as the humidity. I truly love to note the changes, though. Paying attention makes me feel connected to all that is.

I do love fall. I just don’t like the cold (and winter). At different times of the year the temperature is perfect–not too cold or not too hot. But then the weather changes again. I always wondered how it would not to live in a temperate climate. Would I miss the changes? I don’t know whether I will ever find out.
