Here I Am





To be able to stand in the middle of a mowed field and take in fresh air – nothing pressing, just the sounds of birds, the wind and a dog off in the distance… ahh :) I stood there in the field with my pants that are wet up to my knees (quite a soggy field), and I remembered floating in the pool in Florida a few years back and closing my eyes – telling myself to remember that moment of true relaxation. Well, today that moment has become two moments to remember. One of heat and tropical sounds (aka pool splashes) and today of cool breezes and rosy cheeks, along with the silence that comes from middle-of-nowhere-but-you-wouldn’t-wanna-be-anywhere-else ville.
