Mondays are just young Fridays
After an absence of a week or so, Monday arrives announced like you didn’t know it would happen.
Lost in a delightful weekend of doing exactly what you wanted, at times you simply forgot the days and date and treasured the time you were allowed.
Then Monday morning, like right now, you come to the stark realization that the weekend is over and it is time to do what is required instead of whatever you want.
Yes, there are duties and obligations specific to this day and you managed to put aside routine for a day or two, but didn’t you always know Mondays would arrive, as Mondays do?
Grab a coffee (or tea) and get on with the day!

And June has come, as it always does, six
months along, and solstice soon. A swift
transition of time and temperature, the
month of balance holds longer days and
nights less dense, urging condign repose
or moderation. We move further into yet
another year, efficiently making the most
of warm winds and positive vibrations.
Summer advocates familiar moods and
memories. You may occasionally check the
rearview mirror, though June is a greater
opportunity for looking forward. It is not
what is behind you, but what lies ahead.

What are a few days between seasons? As if a shadow could tell of the time and temperature range from hour to day, today or tomorrow, or last season.
Summer to fall. Now is not a fixed period, as was yesterday or last week. Those periods of time are fluid, ever changing, but still somewhat definite in our minds for the time being representing the periods or eras of our presence here on earth.
How we measure our time, any time, always includes a proviso. The conditions we set will influence what is to come, as much as what has happened.
How can you explain yourself when a short-term view overrides the obvious long-term accumulation of thought and experience.
This time is yours; how you chose to share it will differ from day to day.
