Solitude

I stepped outside early this morning to a beautiful blue sky, slanting sunlight and a garden covered with tiny crystals of frost. I felt like I had never seen frost before it was so beautiful.

16 hours later I sit here, tired from a day full of people. People at work with their own agendas and issues and concerns. Myself included.

And later a board meeting with well meaning people trying politely to get along. But since we all have our own perspectives, with only partial success.

Sometimes I long for a desert island. Or at least whole days spent in the beauty of a frost covered garden.

Sleep time. I think I need it!
