Some Sunshine to Embrace


More than enjoying the daylight on an early February day, embracing the sunshine. The kind where drivers reach for their sunglasses & pull down their visors. Appreciating that the outside temperature is above freezing & not by just a degree or two. Appreciating that the Springtime is just a few weeks away. Appreciating that for more than six weeks we’ve had more daylight to enjoy in our day than the previous day; & this will continue until late June. Appreciating that pastels will soon be the color surrounding us, closely followed by delicate brights. Soft blossoms will soon dangle from the tips of tree branches & those birds will find their way back to our window sills, yards, & parks. Bird feeders & bird baths will come alive with food & pools of water. Windchimes will rustle according to the current weather.
We’re rounding the bend of ol’ man winter not even knowing when our final dusting of snow will lay. Or, if a final dusting of snow will lay. We stay strong, focus on the daylight & sunshine. We’ve just about another month or so to go.
