(#5885) Windy rainy day at home

      It has been windy and raining since I got up this morning at around 3 am. I am an early bird kind of person because I like the quiet of the morning better than the excitement of late nights. Of course when I was younger back in the day and preferred the hustle and bustle of the late night scene. Not anymore. I am older and less adventurous for those possible intrigues. My more sedentary life style suits me now and gives me plenty of time to reflect and admire the present around me. Like this morning with the wind whipping and the rain coming in sideways at times. I do appreciate the rain because we here in California do not see nearly enough of it since climate change has been shifting our previously normal weather toward hotter climes.
     I still sit outside under cover just to be able to feel the moist air and inhale the ambiance of swirling atmosphere. Seeing the occasional birds in flight hastily moving toward some kind of shelter captures my attention. I am reminded that our  lives are just part of the bigger picture of nature. Being a part of that for me is not only entertainment but it is vital to my existence. My soul senses the connection with not only our planet here but with the Universe in general. Maybe I get to reflect too much but I cannot imagine a more appropriate commune with nature than this morning with the wind and rain having it's way. There is always something to do to make life easier and better but sometimes, like today, the do nothing option is so persuasive.
     What I like most about the weather this morning is the joy in which it comforts me. It is like a another layer of life I get to enjoy that doesn't happen enough for me. I was wondering how this blog post was going to play out in real time as I am typing but once again the blog just seems to write itself and I just move my fingers to the tempo within all my molecular structure. It is almost like magic but not supernatural just a flow and vibe that is totally enhanced by the windy rainy conditions. I have the rest of the morning and afternoon to enjoy this happy to me weather and that I will do even if I can't help myself and do something to progress the ease of my life through some small accomplishments.
