Two weeks of summer has passed...and still trying to find that relaxed rhythm. Or maybe I'm dreaming about that relaxed rhythm. But, the weather is warm, sometimes hot, which is infinitely better than it was in the winter.
Summer means t-shirts, and shorts, sandals! It means outdoor games and sitting in the shade relaxing with friends - we'll just ignore the mad dashing and entertaining that means caring for kids in the summer.
Summer means rejuvenation, if you can find it. Summer means a fresh start after a long winter.
There was a commercial that used to play when I grew up in South Africa. It was about the start of the professional cricket season. I know, those of you who are American have no idea what the point of that game is, but the commercial used to evoke powerful emotions about Summer. It had the simple refrain of "c'mon summer" in it. And each time it played you chomped at the bit waiting for summer to come.
So now its here and all I can say is "c'mon summer!"
