summer of my life

Summer approaches.

In Seattle, summers are a beautiful reward for the melancholy greys of winter and schizophrenia of spring.

But I’m not just describing the weather.

My life is entering its own summer; the sky is clearing, the environment has become warm and accommodating.

I wake up with a renewed sense of urgency, to take full advantage of each day, and to fill it with that which brings me joy.
