Lost in the Rain

What an interesting and wonderful week it has been.  I have experienced many wonder filled moments, however, I have not had the desire to write.  I think one of the most interesting things in the past few weeks has been the rain and clouds.

For almost 3 weeks now we have had cloudy skies.  This is very unusual for the high desert.  June through August are the normal times for monsoon season.  Monsoon season starts with extremely hot days in June building to afternoon thunderstorms in July and August.

The clouds and rain recently reminded me of living in Minnesota, where the clouds hang out for days with periodic rain showers through out each day and night.  It's been fun to see the bushes blooming with flowers again and the grass and weeds are getting super long. 

Probably one of the most interesting things about this rain is that I feel it has stopped me in my tracks.  I had numerous projects that I was working on but for some reason I found myself watching the clouds and rain and not getting a lot of other things done.  My Wonder Filled Moments have been allowing myself to relax into watching the rain and getting lost in it, letting go of the worries and concerns about accomplishing something, knowing that all will happen as it needs to.
In Gratitude,
Linda G
