It's summertime! One of my favorite seasons. Summertime is full of life. The outdoor landscape is decorated with animals, pets and people in colorful summer clothes, walking, jogging, bicycling, gardening, painting, yard selling, shopping, picnicking, swimming, and lounging.
I did not go anywhere exotic or far on my vacation this summer. Instead, I enjoyed a staycation. Since January 2010, I have been trying to live a little more green. So far, I have not bought any new clothes items for myself. Though I have purchased clothes for others (my kids) .Why is it when I commit to not buying clothes all the clothing stores I use to frequent have the best merchandise on sale? Another commitment I have made is driving less.
One day out of the week, I park Seabiscuit (my car) and get around on foot. What things are missed as Seabiscuit and I whiz by? While walking, fragrant perfumed whiffs from summer blossoms tingle my nose. I witness the indigenous animals, the ancient ones living their life. A family of raccoons hurrying back from a bountiful day of foraging in neighborhood garbage cans. Have you ever stopped to see, touch, and smell the world around you?
Picture postcards are nice to get in the mail. I am also getting back to the ancient art of sending hand written cards.
