THE LAST THURSDAY OF SEPTEMBER

The philosophy of mine earth
 can be summed up as this: 
 Sunshine creates happiness,
and I create myself.  Nights
are long and life is predominantly
 good.  Wind is refreshing.  Tea is
wisdom.  Do the best you can, and
 be good to yourself so that you
 can above all be good to others. 

 ~Jessi Lane Adams

I left all my work inside
yesterday afternoon and
sat in my yard, knitting
in hand and watched a
butterfly feast on my
overgrown basil. It was
nice just to relax in the
sun and have a little time
to reflect on these last
few months. Even with
all the sorrow that has
entered my life these
last few weeks, over all
life is predominantly good.
Yes, the nights are still
long, but the days make
it worth the hours of
sitting in the dark, listening
to the crickets and frogs.
I am doing the best I can, 
trying to be good to myself
and to those near and far
from me. I hope you are
treating yourself well, are
enjoying the sunshine on
your face, drinking a cup
of tea [coffee] and are at
peace with yourself on
this last Thursday in September.
