Published on: 28 July, 202029 July, 2020 by Mike Mekinda Comment

Few things in life better than the smell of summer woods after a rain. Go ahead, close your eyes and imagine… it’s even better than that!

An older pic, still one of my favs. A Christmas or An older pic, still one of my favs. A Christmas ornament for our (years ago) household of 4, and a universal symbol of love and hope as we slide down the hill to the end of 2020.
The entire world is affected by the mess of this year and we're all stuck in it together-- but in very different situations and differing levels of pain. Please remember to reach out to one another, share what you can, help as you're  able.
There's a new day coming, a normal we can live with- but we will be forever changed when we get there. Here's hoping most of us will adapt to that change for the better.
Let this image of a simple, beautiful ornament bring love, hope, togetherness to our extended family of 7.5 billion or so here on this big blue marble.
Be smart, be safe, be well.
Peace

Life is like this all too often and the answer is different for each of us. Indecision is the only choice with no way out, however.
Then again, maybe 2022 will be a better year for decisions- may  just wait here in the woods! 😎
