Just noodling
I’m definitely ready for the end of winter, this year.
The beautiful thing about spring and summer is that it is cheap – you can socialize without climate control (more or less); I’ve held a special place for them my entire life – some years, all I remember are the summers, when my cousins and I would spend a few short months swimming, shouting and setting fire to things at grandma’s house. (I find it kind of gratifying that they grew up just as goofy as I did.)
With many of our friends unemployed and all of us worrying about whether our next paycheck will come, it might be tempting to hole up until the world moves on. We must take it upon ourselves to watch over each other, pick each other up (without needing to be asked), and laugh away the darkness.
The summer, for me, was a time for using the buddy system, for getting into trouble together, for building impossible things, and for enjoying the momentary pleasures of living. I don’t see why that’s any different now; grab my hand, and (as long as we have snax) we’ll make it through together .
She doesn’t feel no fear at all
Bring on autumn moon or driving rain
I only hope I see her face again
Everything is gonna be alright when summer comes
The darkest stars will burn so bright when summer comes
We’ll open up our bodies to the warming of the sun
When summer comes
I want to build impossible things too! I can bring along some snax!
thanks for this post to remind us that these dark winter blahs will pass someday…
Yes! I agree totally.These times need to teach us all top take better care of eachother. That, and just because we’re all broke, it doesn’t mean we can’t still have an awesome time in the nice weather.
The time for Woo Hoo Wednesday will soon be upon us!
I love this post, but I already told you that.
*loves on you*
I can’t wait to see you again.
*big hugs!*
Well said. We do this thing.
I am so ready for trouble *grins*
That’s it, I’m getting a laptop, it will make mischief fit into my life so much more easily!
