This feels like the first year in a long time I have connected with summer time. I am such a fan of fall time and usually summer is just a season before my favorite time of the year. More and more, I try to enjoy every season and appreciate what each one brings. This summer I’ve been thinking a lot about what I appreciate about summer. Here is what I’ve come up with…
Summer makes me feel joyful when:
• Fireflies are around, they are such a treat!
Do you ever just sit and watch those cute bugs light up the sky? Just pause and enjoy the little pleasures of the bright spots around you.
• Sunny days wake me up and bring positive energy to the day!
Do you ever take a moment to enjoy the sunrise or sunset? We all know that vitamin D is good for you. Try soaking some in on the next sunny day.
• Ice cream is just around the corner to chill the hot day! ….we recently stopped at DQ and enjoyed some hot chocolate sundaes and root beer floats. I didn’t get annoyed with the very long line. Instead, I just looked around at all the happy faces anticipating the yummy delight coming their way!
I am sure we all have favorite seasons, and can outline why each one is special to us and our personal needs. This year, I have really enjoyed focusing on the things I like about summer. And speaking of “focusing”, another fun thing that I’ll be doing this summer is attending Donna Kettell’s upcoming ‘Be Focused’ session on visualization on August 31st.
