What a beautiful morning. These summer days are filled with light! While each moment of the day is wonderful and is to be cherished, I find that these earliest moments of the day are for me the most to be relished. They are so quiet, peaceful, and filled with promise. Add to that the glorious views that are presented by the dawning light, add a cup of coffee to the mix, and then sit back and enjoy the day! Wonderful! The summer solstice marks the day of the most daylight during the year. It is a time of transition reminding us that things are now changing as the amount of daylight per day slowly decreases. It is a reminder to us that life is constantly changing. We can never simply stay in one place, for the world changes around us and we are not the same. But we can intentionally move with the days. Charles Dickens once said, "Have a heart that never hardens, a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts." While the world may change, we can consistently have a heart and touch that shares the goodness of who we are.
