Goodnight friends! A day full of wind, half wet and half fair. Gloomy to start and the air quickly filled with solid diagonal thuds of rain, gaining in intensity as the breeze swelled. Then within a few minutes the gusts had sped the heavy gloom along, clouds broke up and dissolved. Butterflies perched gingerly on wet grass. Shining droplets clung in the curled-back petals of bluebells. Striped and garnet-eyed hoverflies licking at the sweetish sweat on the sycamore-maple leaves.
Slow and steady again, trying to consciously half what I feel able to do to give my body a real break. Dizziness lingering cobwebby in the back of my head but generally fading. Likewise pain is less overbearing still making its leaden presence known.
May we find a sense of balance and agency in our lives today!
