It comes & then It goes

The wind hugs my scalp like no other before. It's a breeze of summer air and defining timing. Almost like I was supposed to be here at this very moment. The sound of the birds has entered my soul to awaken me, to remind me of the present moment, and while I'm in the moment, the heat from the sun has landed, landed on my skin like a scrambled egg in a skillet ..... HOT!


The smell of fresh air arises through my nostrils of lightly sweet vanilla while the sounds of the ice cream truck sing melodies in my ears, going through one coming out the other. As I can hear people, couples laughing, kids crying, dogs barking, and running I am at muse with this story that has been imagined in my thoughts.


Thinking of rainbows, hopscotching, and lemonade. Tater tots are being made while the windows are open collecting dust from the outdoors and ice cubes are being frozen. Not thinking about the past or the future. The present moment is all I have so Iā€™m soaking up as much sun as I can grab.


Watching the sunset with people who love me. With a cozy blanket nearby, relax herbal cinnamon and lavender tea fills up my lungs while taking a deep breathā€™s in and out. The cold night's breeze gives me goosebumps on my neck while I wrap the blanket around my full body. Smiling, laughing, expressing with open arms.


Days like this, you want to enjoy it because here in this town we donā€™t have too many. Embrace, feel, and do it every second, minute, and hour you can to feel the joy. The joy from within. Feel it from within. Smell it from within.
