SUMMER SAIL


Summer is here! It brings with it all the freedom and space a person longs for during the winter. Winter asks us to stay close to home, to huddle for warmth within our four walls, to meet the day in darkness, to end the day in darkness, long before we've had enough time with the sun. We draw into ourselves, we ponder too much and we have longings that we can't even identify. In my case, I am longing for bright days with hot sun, mornings when the sun awakens me and long, lazy afternoons that slip slowly into twilight. In Tidewater, we are surrounded by water and the opportunity to sail, surf and tan by the ocean, rivers and creeks. I am grateful for summer this year, ending a long period of recuperation from heart surgery. I am uplifted by the light. Thanks for tuning in.
