Today

It is summer.

The sun is bathing me in a gentle warmness. My feet are bare. I am listening to my favorite Jan Arden album on my ipod.
The 11th floor balcony allows me to see summer played out before me. A raft load of adventurous souls are drifting down the river allowing the river to take them away. I am watching the in line skaters. The new skaters are wobbling back and forth like some kind of “hokey pokey” dance. Friends are walking the paths of the Bow River hand in hand. Cyclists and joggers are vying for the front of the line.
The grass is very green. The trees are leafed out. The summer flowers are showing there astounding colors.
My laptop is on my lap. Life is good.
Today I am not worried about eating.
Today I am not worried about having shelter.
Today I am not worried about health.
Today I have been richly blessed and for that I am eternally grateful.
