The weather over the past two days has been amazing, with today making a good case for being the most glorious day of this strange summer so far. With a light breeze and scattered, puffy clouds, this day is calling out to me, begging me to come bask in it's beauty. Oh, how I would love to do just that.
I would love nothing more than to go to the park and throw down my picnic blanket. While reclining in the shade of the huge oak, I would loose myself in the ever-shifting, whispy patterns of the clouded, blue sky. Armed with a book to read and some ice tea to drink, I would allow myself the priviledge of having no schedule to adhere to. I would read as long as I desired, sleep as long as I dreamed to and simply absorb the day however I deemed enjoyable. Such a day is easy to lose yourself in. However, it is also an amazing time to spend cuddled up next to the one you love. To wrap your arms around your best friend and share the moment in silence, is truly a pleasure that I am blessed to be able to enjoy.
The day calls to me, and I yearn to fulfill this desire which has suddenly welled up in me. I want to be out there, in the magnificent splendor of this day. I want to spend the afternoon being productively ineffective, while completely losing the stresses and strains of this adult life that has me captured behind a desk.
I will be free.
I will breathe the air and watch the clouds.
I will relax under a tree with my love.
I will.
Some things are too important to be snuffed out by the routine.
Oh yes, today I will.
