The weather this past week has been magnificent! Not too hot, not too cool, with sunshine, low humidity and green growing things everywhere I look. I treasure these open window weather days in mid-summer. Days like this feel like
Grace Notes
in summer’s lush symphony of color, warmth, beauty, and thriving colorful burgeoning life.
This week I have been captivated by the seas of green that I see as I look out my windows, swing on the deck, or drive down city streets. Everywhere I look, it seems, I see green things growing.
I soak in the sights, scents, and feelings of these days, hoping that I can call them up in mid-winter when snow covers the ground.
“This!” I think, “This is why I live here in Minnesota where each summer there lie some perfect days filled with grace, green, and gratitude for all things beautiful. Grace notes!”
You can have the other words-chance, luck, coincidence, serendipity. I’ll take grace. I don’t know what it is exactly, but I’ll take it.
