Looks like it’s going to be another hot one. Again. Not complaining … yet!
This time last year I was recovering from a brush with Covid. Took me down for months and I much prefer this year’s heat – which so far has lasted only a couple days so really not much to complain about. Covid, hopefully, is a thing of the past, though it was most certainly an interesting time in our recent history. For good and for bad. There were Covid Corrections – time with family, a focus on health and wellness, appreciation for the small things that were no longer so small after all – and then there were Covid Mistakes – a resurgence of bad habits born of boredom and Swipe Rights that should have been Swipe Lefts, fuelled by loneliness and a need to connect.
The good is hard to sustain, the not so good difficult to cut from our lives. People spoke frequently about the world ‘correcting itself’. Somewhat simplistic I believe. Rarely is there correction without conscious effort. In anything.
Hot topic. Like the weather.
But the garden continues to flourish … nature prevails.
Mom and I planted tiny rose bushes along the side of the road years ago and let them be. They have grown into a tangle and smell heavenly!
I should probably prune and groom them but that would take conscious effort on this hot glorious summer day.
