Tonight … and Tomorrow

We had our very first thundershower of the season tonight. There was lots of lightning, a little thunder, and just enough rain to wet things. The best part was the smell ….. it smelled soooo good. Fresh and new. I stood at the front door and just breathed it all in, over and over and over again. Maybe I was trying to renew my spirit, I don’t know.

Along with the rain shower came colder air. It’s supposed to be significantly colder tomorrow with rain/snow mix during the day. Seems only fitting that it would be cold and dreary. Tomorrow is the 24th. Two years since Mom died. I’ll probably curl up inside myself for the day. It seems to be the safest there. I was thinking that I would go to the cemetary, but changed my mind. My mother isn’t there. She’s in the spirit that now flies free - free of the shackles of this life and the pain it brought her. For that, I am truly grateful.

If your Mom is still with you, please give her a big hug tomorrow and let her know how much you love her, okay?
