The Magic Of Summer

What Is it about summer that captivates us and draws us in? The long sunny days, the outdoor fun, the endless romantic summer nights that at any reasonable age are simply MAGIC! Summer is filled with outdoor picnics, family barbeques, swimming, and enjoying the coolness of the water as we bask in the sun. As a child, I remember the simple joys of just being able to stay outside at my grandmother's house long enough for the sun to go down and we catch fireflies while running in the dark. Summer allows all of our creativity to flow because the feelings of restraint that winter brings about just disappear and the sky's the limit under the magic of summer. What hasn't the summer allowed you to do? From home improvement projects to enjoy the beauty of your front yard, summer has a beauty, a sound that in the cold of winter we don't hear. Something about the sun makes you smile and see possibilities you didn't see in the darkness of winter, even though they might have always been there. Summertime causes us to want to reinvent ourselves, from weight, to beginning a new hobby, the warm breeze under a large tree at the end of a summer's day can be the perfect end to a beautiful day. Whatever your "thing" is, summertime heightens it and improves the feeling of getting it done. Summer time is Magical in the sense that we all come out more, adventure more and spend more fun family time outdoors. Summer is the time to fall in love, dance in the rain, and nourish the garden of life. Summertime is a place, a feeling, a vibe. total energy. Summertime is the moment you remember what you forgot, you practice what you preach and you live in the light. I for one, am embracing this season in time and in my life. I am taking hold of All that this season has to offer. There is magic all around us and if we believe in the mystical wonder of this season, I believe we all can experience a little of that summer magic too.
