The baby is napping so here I am with fresh coffee. It's glorious outside this morning (although getting uncomfortably warm now) so I spent time on the deck with the baby and just... was.
We heard acorns drop. Heard squirrels scrambling in the trees. We found the squirrel and watched him a bit before he scampered down. We heard a bird tweet. Tree trunks swayed and crackled in the breeze once in a while.
I didn't think about protests, looting, fires or hurricanes. I didn't
think about the hatred and lies being spewed by biased press. Uneducated
and uninformed celebrities and athletes spouting lies they don't even know are
lies didn't even enter my mind. There was no hate, violence, arguments
or name calling. There was no political fighting or screaming or
protesting or stealing and burning down buildings. No attacks or
guns. No quarantines or masks. The rest of the universe and their issues did not exist.
Nothing but me, a newborn baby and the quiet of nature.
And it was good.
