We've been having the loveliest weather this past week in California. Warm sun and cool breezes all around... perfect for taking walks, riding bikes, or sitting in the backyard with a good book soaking up the Vitamin D.
I've been busy writing and reading for school most days, but I did find the time to make a beaded bracelet set and write a few letters. Yes, that's right - old-fashioned, handwritten letters that you send in the mail. I have dear friends who live far away, not to mention my only sister and my older brother who live in different states. Though the regular post takes longer than an email to arrive, nothing beats the timeless charm of a handwritten letter. I thoroughly enjoy scratching out line after line of cursive script, asking for the latest news and telling of the latest adventures. Usually, my recipients enjoy it, too. Receiving personal, handwritten mail is always a nice surprise and written correspondence is a treasure between friends.
I'm beginning to see a theme for this year - ideas. It's all about ideas, innovation, creative thinking - in my classes, at home, among friends. Brainstorming and planning and conceptualizing are becoming second nature, and it is thrilling to be part of something so dynamic and positive.
What's next, I wonder...
After all, life is too short to die.
