“they say today’s high will be in the 40s. to be sitting out here this morning when it’s still in the 30s is probably crazy, but i love it. i’m not sure why i haven’t always started my mornings like this. i wax more poetic when i’m still a little sleepy and there’s really no better jumpstart for me than coffee & writing. everyone should see this shade of blue sky. it’s ridiculous — almost purple… [complimentary] to the different shades of green that the sun makes by highlighting the leaves facing east. the wind is blowing ever so slightly… almost as if the trees are all waving good morning. i maintain that god is still the best artist i know.
…
john lennon once said ‘life is what happens when you’re busy making other plans.’ that is the truest statement. never have i had a bigger blessing than to be able to SLOW DOWN and enjoy what’s going on around me. life is beautiful. carpe diem.”
