Leisure & Work...
Today is officially the first day of Summer (the longest day of the year). Warmer temps, the day meets you and caresses you with welcoming fingers. The last few days we've been practicing Summer. Spending lots of time on the lakefront, wandering the paths and streets, sitting on our favorite bench, taking in the blue skies and surging waters. I told someone yesterday that I felt like Tom Sawyer or Huckleberry Finn. A young wanderer. Observing, taking in the passing scene. I wear the years on my body, but all those years sort of melt away in the moment to moment. There is an innocence to be found in a long Summer day. Days of work and leisure. Hard to tell which is which. Maybe the trick is to make leisure your work? And work your leisure?
