Good afternoon friends! Far lighter skies today – long hazy streaks of translucent cloud stained gold by the sun, my shadow preceding me long and pale along squelching puddle-covered tracks. A kingfisher flitting between bare branches by the reservoir, incongruous as a sapphire set in black iron.
Elected to take a break instead of some planned exercise. Less pain than yesterday but still feeling frayed physically and mentally, just about threadbare.
May we build room in our hearts and lives for joy today!
