The sun is shining today. It is gloriously welcomed by me. In the autumn this far, we have had quite a few days of dreary darkness, laced with cool, if not downright cold winds, which whip there way through the day. Still, we have had some exceptionally warm and sunny days as well. Today is not so warm, but, it is brilliantly lit with the rays of the sun, and, that warms my soul...
I never thought I could live in a climate where the sun is not continuous, and, while I am not fond of the darkness of the cold seasons, I know that they have an essential purpose as well. They refresh the Earth itself and lend balance to the whole of nature, so, I have become accepting and tolerant of the colder seasons presence in my life. Still, my heart longs for the beach and the constant sunny days of the coastal lands...
The sun plays so many vital roles in life, but, the essentials of what it does for the human body and mind and soul is amazing. People who live in sunny climates are healthier, live longer, and, for the most part, are much happier. And me, I know the difference for sure....
So, it is time to stop staring out the window and this screen, that I might get out and enjoy some of the rays before they are distant memory, which will be sooner than I care to imagine... Have a wonderful day full of life, laughter, love, and, lots of sunshine...
