Out and About - June 2015

♫Animals♫

The weather this month has gone from being too hot and humid to downright cold to somewhere in between.  It has expressed my mood quite well......languid to exhilarated and somewhere in between.  I shared in the first post for the month how I was feeling about my life.  Poetry captures how I felt as she lies in the window trying to catch a breeze. . . .

Summertime

The lazy, hazy days of Summer.....When I think of summer now I think of the wild Ox-eye Daisies* and new-born fawns that are in my gardens. . . .

Finding Purpose

♫With a Little Help From My Friends♫

Yesterday when I wrote about feeling adrift because I'd lost my sense of purpose (I've always been purpose-driven!) so many of you wrote to empathize and offer encouragement.  All of your comments have been taken to heart and I'm sure helped clear the way to the point I came to this morning while journaling and reading my morning devotions.  After posting yesterday I asked my husband if I sounded like I was whining.  He assured me I didn't.  But if I did, no one made me feel like I had, so I greatly appreciate that.  Instead you let me know you understood, offered me solace, and shared your story so I could glean what I could from it.  I thank you for that.  Then the most amazing thing happened.  I looked outside my window yesterday afternoon and saw this. . . .
