Hi!
So, tomorrow is August 1, a time where the powers that be, will start placing the 'back to school' ads front and center, reminding all of us, incessantly, that Summer is, by far, the shortest and fastest season. Yes, the weather will remain warm for a while, and the days will begin to shorten at a pace Mother Nature thinks is clever enough to trick our senses. Sleep-ins and long, leisurely bike rides will give way to school routines and homework.
But......
There is still a month of summer left! Make it count!
Dip your toes in some water, hell, cannonball that baby! Drink something from a frosted glass, sleep in, at least a few times, play silly games, develop a month-long allergy to hurrying, and let yourself lose track of time.
We only get so many summers, and for those of us who live in a climate that loves to show off the flipside with a vengeance, they are particularly precious.
As much as you can...
Let the weather, instead of a calendar, dictate your itinerary.
Have seat-of-your-pants days, where the only rule is you leave your house, the rest is dictated by mood and questionable decisions.
Start doing the things on your bucket list, it's meant for more than summer reading!
Wear the things! Be fancy, be casual, be boho, hell, be naked, just don't get arrested!
Do something you've never done! Doesn't have to be big!
Go somewhere you've never been! Doesn't have to be far!
Adventures need not be EPIC to be epic!
Life is not meant to be survived, as none of us do.
It's meant to be lived and enjoyed, showing kindness without expectation along the way.
I'm ready.... you comin'?

We'll have more serious things to talk about later, as, well, you know... the world...
But, for now, let's just take a breather from the serious, it'll be there when we get back...
