After weeks of oppressive humidity and high temperatures we have been blessed with two days of cloud cover, low temperatures 20-25 C and the gentlest rain ever...it is just hanging in droplets off the trees, shrubs and roses... everything is so green...

sometimes where you live can emerge out of its ordinariness (is that a word?) and take on a gossamar of such beauty it makes your heart feel warm physically...

today is like that.

If we only experience this occasionally life is well worth it. Days like this remind me of somethng that I have forgotten, and then its back again...not sure what it is... amybe a feeling of the sacredness in life, or the connection, or just a reminder of another time which is dear to me.

I'm not on an island in this I know...its something common to humanity... we have much more in common than those things we are encouraged to believe divide us I think.
