~ Gray Days ~

It's a cold gray day here ...with rain in the forecast for this evening.

When I was small, I loved days like this when it was possible to stay inside

and focus on making, creating and reading. Of course , I loved to play outside too

and would ride my horse over the hill and sit and watch and listen

to the world  and soak in the sunshine ...just a peaceful and quiet way to connect with

nature and all of her sounds and sensations...these routines kept me centered.

 *** 

Now I am older and have a grown family and a loving husband...

I no longer have my horses or live on the farm where I grew up...

I still like these cold and gray days because they still seem to be the perfect time

to create and read and focus ...Times change but then they don't change...

I still find comfort in those quiet moments when I can find my center and

heal my soul... Joy is what makes you happy and content...a quiet mind

is a blessing sometimes...meditate.

***

Stay true to yourself...those cold gray days are a time to

grow inside and blossom within.
