Summer is my favorite season, and as we enter the last weeks of it I'm usually a little sad. Fall is my least favorite time of the year, and leads into winter, which always ends up being holiday disasterfest in some form or another for me. This year, however, summer has been so filled with fun and joy I think it will carry me through the darker months.
Life can be like a garden if you plant enough good ideas, love and kindness. A dear friend sent me some seeds last year, one of which grew into this delicious watermelon. I'll never forget the delight of seeing it grow, harvesting it, tasting it and sharing it with our neighbors. This is just one of the happy things that happened this summer.
Taking off a week and a half to spend time with these two also made my summer bright. They filled my birthday with light. They fill me with light. I'm ready for whatever fall and winter bring now. :)
