We arrived home on Sunday, relaxed and filled with happy memories. A bright yellow piece of paper stuck on the mailbox catches our eyes.

wednesday's words and wanderings and wonderings
Ahhh, lake life. It's just a slower pace where a cup of morning coffee tastes so good while sitting outside enjoying the peace and quiet of the new day. Being around a lake has such a calming and relaxing effect; my shoulders instantly drop when I see the water. I instantly feel so content and that peaceful, easy feeling lasts all day long.
"So let the mind flow like water. Face life with a calm and quiet mind and everything in life will be calm and quiet." - Thich Thien-An
Monday morning rolls around. 7:00 a.m. All at once a rumble comes down the street and then BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. A concrete road breaker begins breaking up the curbs and driveway aprons. 24 hours earlier on a lake in rural Michigan we woke up to geese honking and an occasional fishing boat passing by. It was an I-wish-I-were-back-at-the-lake moment.

This would have been a good week to be away.
ReplyDeleteYes, it would. Just a week off in the timing.
DeleteSounds like you should have stayed on the lake for another few days. The views in hour photos are certainly calming.
ReplyDeleteI wish we could have stayed a little longer. I'll just look at my photos for calm memories.
