In Sync with the Weather

Up at the cabin, my moods seem to be in sync with the weather today. Contentment while painting the exterior siding under cloudy skies. Uplifted by the sight of a tiny, white feather resting on the ground beside me, just as the sun broke through for a brief visit. Gratitude for getting in a long lake swim before the winds picked up. Then, in concert with the summer storm rolling in, shedding a few tears when one of the songs from Mike's service spontaneously broke the silence, as the temperamental stereo decided to spring to life. Now, while listening to the remainder of that soundtrack and observing the ongoing interplay between clouds, sun and rain, I breathe in all the expressions of life that surround me.

I have been thinking of you a lot the past two days. A little tiny feather blew onto my deck while I lay there on Monday. So fragile. So precious. Since your experiences with feathers I have never taken their appearance for granted. I love you.

You do have a knack for picking up on my energy - I am grateful for our deep connection.
