Some people are celebrating the beginning of summer, others the full “berry” moon, many are suffering the devastation of floods and fires.
I am happy just to have a full on spring. We had one hot week in May and I spent the whole week planting, mowing and enjoying my garden. It has rained almost every day since then and the weather has been cool. The grasslands are still green and lush. Spring run off is still flowing and the rivers are high. Freshet is beautiful this year. Ten years ago we were not so lucky. The hills burned in August with a devastating fire, that the wind kept moving. Evacuation due to natural disaster is a face to face with attachment and letting go.
Today I am just grateful to have flowers in bloom to pick and bring into the house.
Compassion for those not able to be in their home right now.
