Goodnight friends! 23°c or so, scattered flecks and streaks of cloud but still massively bright and blue. As the lindens fill in and the grass grows higher and the insects spring into scampering activity the world is active and full of wound-spring kinetic forces even when there’s barely a breeze. Constant flex and relax of blotchy shadows, progress of each hawthorn shield bug marked by trembling stems.
Mostly a very peaceful, mild-paced day. Stretches outdoors gazing up at the green treetops tentatively reaching out for each other. Judo practice entering the sweaty season, puffing and struggling earlier in the session, but more-or-less got through it in the end.
May we find a sense of stability and ease in our lives today!
