June, It Begins
I'm up early, I raced the sun out of bed this morning. The night previous I basically fell asleep after I posted my update. I got all the sleep I need apparently and woke with the sun. I'm ready for work and have some extra time before I make a five hour drive to the south of my territory so I figured I'd pop in and say hey. The sky is a beautiful blue and this early in the day I feel like it's mine and mine alone. There are a few truckers rolling along that I have to share it with I guess but it's cool being up when few are, the world is so quiet. It harkens the mind to dwell on what it would be like if I was truly the last, of one of the few. If ninety percent of the world's population vanished and all these houses were empty, all the roads clear and empty, everything so quiet, what would it be like? I am not looking to find out, don't worry about that. But when you're sitting up alone and looking out at the bright sun and the beautiful morning sky, the day filled with promise and expectation it's neat to think about what you would do if there was nothing required of you. It can be quickly ruined when you start to think about hydro and food and where or how you would come by life's amenities but that is not part of the daydream. The point is to just imagine carefree days without interference from work or jerks. No dummies or fools to clog up your mind, just an open free mind, like the big blue sky. That should be a song lyric. Probably from the sixties or early seventies. Mostly just the last portion, not the dummy or fool aspect. Anyways, I'm sitting here looking at the beautiful morning and thinking about the potential of the day, how ones like this seem to have a higher chance of being a great day and I thought I'd share that with you. Maybe cause you to take pause and realize how lucky we are to have such a great day unfolding around us. Remember winter? This is the kind of day to lock into your memory to pull out when you're feeling blue in February. Hopefully just mildly down, not actually blue, because that would mean you're freezing to death, or lacking oxygen. Both are not good, probably even worse than a freezing cold winter storm. But I digress. Enjoy the day, I know I'm going to try to.
